It is Vienna, 1824. Beethoven, played brilliantly by Ed Harris, is racing to finish his new symphony. However, it has been years since his last success and he is plagued by deafness and personal trauma. A copyist is urgently needed to help the composer finish in time for the scheduled first performance. Insightful young conservatory student and aspiring composer Anna Holtz (Diane Kruger) is recommended for the position. The mercurial Beethoven is sceptical that a woman might become involved in his masterpiece but slowly comes to trust in Anna's assistance in unveiling his glorious 9th symphony.
