And from Redcar Palace Art Gallery, director James Beighton and curator Beth Smith of Tees Valley Arts discuss how the venue is used to create works as well as share them, and why accessibility has become one of their main focuses.

Filme sobre a tempestuosa e também lendária relação de trabalho entre dois mitos do cinema, Werner Herzog e Klaus Kinski, e seus planos independentes e simultâneos de um matar ao outro. Um relacionamento de amor e ódio, que é um complicado quebra-cabeças para quem está de fora, mas ao mesmo tempo revela a profunda confiança entre um diretor e um ator. Uma rede de coincidências levou Herzog, então um estudante de 13 anos, a encontrar Kinski no mesmo apartamento em Munique. Em um ataque de raiva, Kinski destruiu todos os móveis do lugar. Era apenas um de seus acessos de fúria. Assim, Herzog sabia o que o esperava quando, alguns anos mais tardes, chamou Kinski para trabalhar em Aguirre, A Cólera dos Deuses. Herzog e Kinski trabalharam juntos em cinco filmes.
