Raised to the level of “Genius of the cinema“ at 24, his first film praised by the critics, why did the filmmaker Orson Welles not finish any other film just after reaching the height of his fame? Did he love his freedom too much to dedicate himself to the seventh Art? One of Welles’ quotes might help us to start our investigation: “I began at the top and have been making my way down ever since”.
Trying to seize the man Orson behind the myth, this documentary reminds us of the modernity and audacity with which Welles reinvented the language of film.
