A feature film about Strauss' second wife
Johann Strauss’ second wife Lili (Angelika Dittrich) has been overshadowed by the many other women in his life. Film producer Florian Gebhardt has joined forces with authors Alex Beer and Alrun Fichtenbauer to find out why. Lili Dittrich was a young singer adrift in a world full of music and imperial splendour. Her love for Strauss sparked off ambitious dreams in her that were confounded by the expectations of Viennese society. Film and TV director Catalina Molina takes a searching look at her abortive career.
