German Movie Vitus is it real?!

And want to know about the real character if it's not fiction.


Answers: I want to know if this movie was based on the true story.

And want to know about the real character if it's not fiction.

From everything I've read, although the boy is a prodigy in real life, this film is fictional. It sounds rather like it has a documentary treatment at times, so maybe that's why it seems real.

All of the reviews commented on the boy who plays Vitus in "Vitus". Obviously, he doesn't resemble the character he plays in behavior at least.

From IMDB:
The director says that Vitus grew out of his own childhood fantasy: to be a genius. Other fantasies also play out in this completely guileless, charming story.
Teo Gheorghiu is, in fact, a brilliant pianist. Now 14, he played in person before the screening and proved that, in fact, all the musicianship on display is real. The 5-year-old Vitus also plays. Happier and funnier than "Little Man Tate". What is thoroughly unpredictable about this film is the absence of nasty, bitter adults and children you'd have likely found in an American version, except for the boss's son character, who is a cliché, but not one you have to look at for long. "Vitus" demonstrates that fantasy can be a personal, human pastime, not just a cartoon or computer-generated effect.
