Filip Peeters - Beethoven

Two hundred years after his death, Beethoven is alive and kicking. In Beethoven crawls into the head and heart of the legendary composer as Filip Peeters. This man fought against death, against limitations, and against himself his entire life. In collaboration with Damiaan De Schrijver, Joris Van den Brande, and An Miller, actor Filip Peeters Beethoven brings him back to life. He does not portray him as a dusty icon, but as a revolutionary artist who turned everything upside down in his time. This is not a polite portrait, but an intense and layered performance about a man who stubbornly wanted to be himself. A tormented spirit in search of beauty and meaning. Beethoven is an ode to the power of art: the place where masks fall off and where the human shows himself in all his vulnerability.
