The red carpet and premium night event for the film "Beethoven Fabrication" (directed by Seki Kazuaki, scheduled for release on September 12th), starring actor Yuki Yamada, was held in Tokyo on August 20th, with Yamada, Furuta Arata, Fuju Kamio, Maeda Oshiro, Ozawa Yukiyoshi, Kote Shinya, Nomaguchi Toru, and director Seki Kazuaki in attendance. At the event, the cast members confessed "past failures they would like to fabricate," in reference to the film's title.
The film is a live-action adaptation of Shiho Kagehara's historical non-fiction book "Beethoven Fabrication: A Great Producer Lies" (Kawade Bunko). Bakarhythm wrote the screenplay, focusing on the scandal surrounding the discovery that Schindler, Beethoven's secretary and posthumous biography author, significantly altered Beethoven's phrasebook after he lost his hearing. Yamada stars as Schindler, the faithful secretary whose mission is to protect his idol, played by Furuta, as he struggles to transform Beethoven's image from a "vulgar, filthy old man" (truth) into a "divine, genius musician" (lie) after his death.
