              Overview

              In 1931, at the height of his artistic powers, Soviet pioneer Eisenstein travels to Mexico to shoot a new film. Freshly rejected by Hollywood and under increasing pressure to return to Stalinist Russia, he arrives in Guanajuato. Chaperoned by his guide Palomino Cañedo, he experiences the ties between sex and death, happy to create their effects in cinema, but troubled to suffer them in life.

              One of Britain’s most inventive filmmakers, Peter Greenaway, tackles the story of arguably the most influential filmmaker in cinema history, Sergei Eisenstein. Greenaway’s provocative and flamboyant fantasy explores the mind of one of the greatest masters of cinema, a creative genius facing the desires and fears of love, sex and death through ten passionate days that helped shape the rest of his career.
