Timeless
The life and thoughts of Viennese philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein here stands as a central piece, in a modern dramatization of key moments through his life. From boyhood, via the First World War and his Cambridge-education to his eventual professorship.
Wittgenstein is set against a black backdrop, with its sketches emphasizing its subject’s great genius rather than his surroundings. The film was awarded Best Feature Film at the Berlin International Film Festival, for its dealing with LGBT topics.
