Breaking Beethoven, embarks on the quest for the lost Beethoven jubilee year with star violinist Aleksey Igudesman. We encounter artists such as Hyung-ki Joo, Julian Rachlin, Valentina Nafornița and Georg Breinschmid as they have to redefine themselves in the course of the lockdown and learn to create a virtual stage for their audience. Strolling through empty concert halls, standing in front of closed opera houses, we can only imagine all those places where Beethoven's music was meant to have been played. Beethoven's traces through the city are drawn in interviews with stars such as Billy Joel, Hans Zimmer, Yuja Wang, Joshua Bell and Rebekka Bakken.

Viennese composer Marianna von Martines has only recently appeared in music research, although she was famous during her lifetime and, as a restless salonière, promoted and supported musicians like Ludwig van Beethoven. Her story is brought to life in an audiovisual journey of discovery by means of re-enactment, but also viewed from the perspective of today's Viennese composer, Johanna Doderer, and various music historians. A look at the social and musical history of 18th-century Vienna opens up a world in which female talents in music and the arts found it difficult or impossible to step into the limelight to pursue a career.
