# Dvořák - In Love?

Dvořák – In Love? is a 1988 documentary film about the Czech composer Antonín Dvořák and a recording of his Cello Concerto by Julian Lloyd Webber and the Czech Philharmonic which was made in the same year. The film also tells of a love affair for the composer that never was, but was the inspiration for the concerto.

Originally a co-production with Czechoslovak Television, the finished film and its political content could not be shown in Communist-ruled Czechoslovakia. Two years later, after the fall of communism, the film was the first documentary to be shown on the newly-liberated Czechoslovak Television.
