Die Akte Beethoven

10.0 0 mins Documentary   2013
WDR   ARTE   Beetz Brothers Film Production  
Director(s): Ralf Pleger Hedwig Schmutte

In a mixture of feature film, music documentary and animated comics, historical facts are retold, analyzed and interpreted in modern settings. Ludwig van Beethoven, played by Lars Eidinger, becomes a contemporary of today's audience. Quick-tempered, irascible, curmudgeonly - that is the common image of Ludwig van Beethoven, the composer with the wild lion's mane. But there is also another Beethoven - young, seductive, spirited and, above all, combative.
