This is Chiaki's movie.
Nodame Cantabile: The Movie I is the part of the live action I haven't watched the corresponding part of the anime. It's more focused on the drama and less of the slackstick, albeit present in sprinklings, that the jdorama/anima is known for. If you're in it expecting the same level of slapstick comedy, manage your expectations. It has bits and pieces of it but not to the extent seen in the TV series. I'm not sure if the corresponding anime version is more serious too.
This film focuses more on how Chiaki prevents a century old orchestra from disbanding. Unfortunately, there's barely any of Megumi and Stresemann.
The purpose of this film is to make Megumi feel that Chiaki is unreachable, which sets the conflict of Film no 2. Megumi has to grow fast or lose Chiaki.
Other than that, the Paris scenes are nice.
