Self - Director, Visconti's Nephew
Forty years after his death, this documentary pays tribute to one of the major filmmakers of Italian cinema, to an original work that continues to inspire today's cinema. Coming from one of the greatest families of the Italian aristocracy, he could have been a rich and cultured man, living in opulence and idleness, but Luchino wanted a different destiny. This is the story that director Elisabeth Kapnist and Christian Dumais-Lvowski wanted to tell. Count Visconti di Modrone wears the clothes of a legend that he never stopped shaping throughout his life. This documentary reconstructs the fabric of a brilliant life, dedicated to art; theater, opera, and cinema. This artistic work is also that of a committed man, who was a fellow traveler of the Communist Party, and who resisted fascism.

Este filme retrata a conturbada histórica de vida de Ludwig, rei da Baviera, desde sua coroação em 1864 até sua morte em 1886 como um herói romântico. Fã de Richard Wagner, traído por ele, apaixonado por sua prima Elisabeth da Áustria, abandonada por ela, ele experimentou uma sucessão de derrotas pessoais. E, além disso, foi atormentado por sua homossexualidade e pouco a pouco foi aceitando a loucura.
