Copying Beethoven
Beethoven meets mentorship without the mentor. In 1824 Vienna, a volatile, deaf composer races to finish his Ninth Symphony with help from a fictional female copyist, a student hiding her talent in a man’s world. Their tense collaboration becomes mutual salvation, carried by surging performances and period grit.
