The story of Bertolt Brecht's struggle with the production company who want to turn 'Threepenny Opera' into a film.

synopsis

En

After Bertolt Brecht's 'Threepenny Opera' is a huge success in 1928 in Berlin, cinema producers want the author to turn it into a film. But Brecht and his production company have very different interests: Brecht has a real creative vision; the production company wants to make money. While the film and its central conflict begin to take shape, Brecht unleashes an unprecedented conflict of his own: he takes the producers to court over their undermining of the author's rights for financial gain.
