Film Synopsis
In Paris, 1900 the artist Gustav Klimt is feted at the Universal
Exhibition whilst he is condemned as a provocateur in his native
Vienna. Ahead of his time, his paintings reflect the way he lives
his life; his models are his muses, the women he
worships. In all of his work can be glimpsed the
artist's passionate relationships and his endless search for
perfection...

The brighter side of Franz Kafka
In his letters to his friends and family, Franz Kafka gives us a rich self-portrait that is surprisingly upbeat, nor the angst-ridden soul we might expect.
Since the 1920s, Hollywood has dominated the film industry, but that doesn't mean American cinema is all bad - America has produced so many great films that you could never watch them all in one lifetime.
Science-fiction came into its own in B-movies of the 1950s, but it remains a respected and popular genre, bursting into the mainstream in the late 1970s.
