Faith and Fury

Charles Hazlewood 's drama documentary reaches a crescendo with the final tragic years of the composer's life. While he continued to produce extraordinary works such as the Hammerklavier sonata, Missa Solemnis and the Ninth Symphony, Beethoven's personal life was dominated by the bitter custody battle for his nephew Karl.
