Czech Lions - 2023
WINNER of 6 Awards including Best Czech Film and Best Director
“The award-winning Czech director Petr Vaclav has created a marvelous period piece, rich in costume and music, not to mention performances by real-life opera stars. – Liza Foreman, Variety

The biopic follows the extraordinary life of 18th-century opera composer Josef Mysliveček, “Il Boemo” (1737-1781), who inspired Mozart and became his friend. At the height of his career, this Czech-born cosmopolitan playboy was one of the most sought after composers of the Italian opera scene. Delve into the life of this little known mastermind of music. The film took home the top prize for Best Czech Film at the prestigious 2023 Czech Lion Awards as well as awards for best director, sound, art direction, costumes, and makeup. The film stars Vojtěch Dyk in the lead.
