Chopin: Desire for Love

Synopsis

"A tangled web of unruly passion lies at the center of this drama, chronicling the stormy affair between the great piano virtuoso Frederic Chopin and the flamboyant feminist writer Aurore Dupin, who called herself George Sand. Academy Award nominated Jerzy Antczak directs this sweeping portrayal of the famed composer and his intense but hurtful relationship with George Sand and her children." [Amazon Prime Video] "Chopin's music is integral to the film, with pianist Janusz Olejniczak playing his works. Two versions of the film were shot—in Polish and English—with British actors later lip-syncing the dialogue. Antczak spent 25 years writing the screenplay and six years raising the budget for the film." [Wikipedia]
