The story begins where you’d least expect it—in Ljutomer, where the young Lang, as a war volunteer, encountered the pioneer of Slovenian cinema, Dr. Karol Grossmann. From there, the comic takes us through the heights of Weimar cinema, the chilling shadows of Nazism, and the dazzling, yet never simple times in Hollywood. Everything you’ve ever wanted to know about one of the greatest filmmakers of all time can be found in this marvelous and thoroughly researched graphic novel.
This is not a comic, this is a big-budget, no-compromise, no-nonsense film feature!
