Il Boemo
Petr Václav / Czech Republic, Italy, Slovak Republic 2022 / 143 min. / 15 years / DCP
Petr Václav’s latest feature film portrays the life and work of Josef Mysliveček, the half-forgotten, world-renowned and much-admired composer of the late-Baroque and Classicism period who was nicknamed Il Boemo due to his Czech roots. Il Boemo is Václav’s most challenging, most expensive and most prestigious film that goes far beyond the average Czech film production.
