My life with Bohuslav Martinu

Bohuslav Martinu (1890-1959) was born in a small town in Bohemia and spent his life in France, USA, Switzerland, and Italy. As one of the few composers of his time, he experienced great success and fame during his life. The film contains shots of authentic remembrances – newspaper critics, programme books, pictures, buildings, places where Martinu lived, his autographs, archive film shots of the places where he composed. The baseline of the movie is formed by a stream of sorted thoughts of Martinu’s French wife Charlotte. The music sounds like a soundtrack and corresponds to the chronologically narrated content.
