FICTION

Klimt

The film's plot centres on Klimt's passion for the French dancer and actress Lea de Castro, his struggle for artistic freedom, and his life-long but platonic relationship with Emilie Flöge. His close friendship with Egon Schiele forms the narrative voice of the film. A virtuoso homage to the famous Viennese artist and his life, set against the rich historical tapestry of the Fin de Siècle.
