• 9 décembre 2016 : The Creative Europe Programme – MEDIA supports ‘Saving Mozart’
SYNOPSIS
Salzburg, 1939. Mozart’s city is becoming the cultural capital of the Third Reich. Otto Steiner ekes out his days in a Salzburg sanatorium while, in the world outside, History is baring its teeth. Austrian, (a bit) Jewish, (completely) alone, all that matters to him now is music. Tuberculosis eats away at him as much as the petty humiliations of being ill, and, together, they push him close to the edge. He intends to kill the senior doctor in the sanatorium. He intends to kill Hitler as well, and almost manages it. Instead, he will mastermind a musical rebellion… in order to save Mozart!
