El joven Ludwig

Ludwig van Beethoven was a self-made artist, creator of music that continues to move us today. But who was young Ludwig, before he became Beethoven? Born into a humble family in Bonn, little "Luddi" has to face a difficult life from an early age, led at a despotic pace by an alcoholic and indebted father, who wants to take advantage of his raw talent and demands a and again to stop composing his own pieces, and to play only what is expected of him on the piano... Mikael Ross has imagined the young genius taking as a reference the real diaries that the Fischers wrote, the Beethovens' neighbors in Bonn, which offer an atypical portrait of the dysfunctional family that lived in the house above and that nevertheless gave birth to one of the greatest geniuses in history. The result is an immersive and fascinating experience, halfway between social drama and humor.
