Ludwig B

As the drums of war begin to echo from France, a young boy in Bonn, Germany, suffers a fateful blow to the head that leaves him crying out in pain. This child is Ludwig van Beethoven, a figure destined to become one of history’s most celebrated composers within just a few short years. Yet, before his genius can be recognized by the world, he is merely a commoner struggling to endure daily life under the burden of an alcoholic father and a society entirely unaware of his future greatness. In this turbulent era, he is not yet a renowned artist but simply a young man known as "Ludwig"—a name that unexpectedly provokes deep hatred and fear from a nobleman named Franz Kreuzstein. Driven by a mysterious grudge against anyone bearing that specific name, Franz targets the aspiring musician with relentless hostility. As political unrest looms on the horizon, the young Beethoven finds himself trapped in a deeply personal conflict he cannot fully perceive, forced to fight for survival against a powerful adversary while remaining deaf to the true reasons behind the vendetta threatening his life.
