Society has created a stereotype of the LGTBQ collective in which its members are young people who are fashionable, who have money, who have a lot of fun and who never pass the age of forty. But where are the older ones? When they reach that age, do they evaporate? This documentary makes visible a little-discussed topic: old age.

Jesus Christ Saviour

May 15, 2008

Klaus Kinski has perhaps the most ferocious reputation of all screen actors: his volatility was documented to electrifying effect in Werner Herzog’s 1999 portrait My Best Fiend. This documentary provides further fascinating insight into the talent and the tantrums of the great man. Beset by hecklers, Kinski tries to deliver an epic monologue about the life of Christ (with whom he perhaps identifies a little too closely). The performance becomes a stand-off, as Kinski fights for control of the crowd and alters the words to bait his tormentors. Indispensable for Kinski fans, and a riveting introduction for newcomers, this is a unique document, which Variety called ‘a time capsule of societal ideals and personal demons.’
