Herbert von Karajan (1908-1989), one of the 20th century’s most fascinating and complex geniuses, dominated the post-war classical music world like a colossus. At the same time, his ambitious, ambivalent personality, and particularly his troubling career history with the Third Reich cast a shadow on his reputation.
This film reveals the phenomenon of the man and his music while touching on inspiring, but also controversial, and troubling aspects of his career. It is Karajan himself, in archive interviews, who talks of events in his life and relates them to his work as a conductor. Featuring performance excerpts of Beethoven's Symphony No. 9 and Richard Strauss's Rosenkavalier.
