Wim Wenders’ Monumental Documentary ‘Anselm’ To Stream On The Criterion Channel March 19
Wim Wenders' documentary 'Anselm,' about monumental German-born artist Anselm Kiefer, will begin streaming March 19 on The Criterion Channel.
“Shot in 6K resolution—and released theatrically in 3D—the film presents an immersive cinematic experience of the German artist’s work, which explores the overawing beauty of human existence, landscape, and myth, and confronts the horrors of his country’s history, seeking to undo the postwar silence in which Kiefer came of age. Through archival footage, reenactment, and direct access to his subject at work in the massive installation in Southern France where he now lives amid his creations, Wenders traces the arc of Kiefer’s career, provoking an engagement with creativity through the senses, intellect, and spirit.” Deadline’s Damon Wise, in a review in Cannes, called Anselm “extraordinary,” writing it “reminds viewers of the thrill of being in the presence of great art.”
