Original and inventive on every level, this story about the legendary filmmaker looks at the emotional truth behind the tales told by the man with the outsize personality and the arch monocle at the moment that he moved away from his epic extravaganzas (Metropolis) to morbid tales of depraved individuals (M). The result is not a reality-based biopic, but rather an attempt to show that the darkest insights into the human psyche originated in the filmmaker himself.
