The new documentary film, “Robert Wilson - The Beauty of the Mysterious” by Carl von Karstedt will première on the French-German TV station ARTE this Sunday. The broadcast on the German side will start at 11:15PM, and in France just after midnight (Monday).
The filmmaker, Carl von Karstedt, was driven by his fascination for his first Wilson piece, The Black Rider (Hamburg 1990), and all the others he has seen since, and his goal to “crack the unique artistic code” around Robert Wilson’s works. For this film, he accompanied Wilson for about a year to various rehearsals and projects, and met several of his key collaborators.
A Film by Carl von Karstedt; with: Marina Abramovic, Willem Dafoe, Tom Waits, Philipp Glass, Christian Friedel, Christopher Nell, Ann-Christin Rommen, Stefan Kurt, Sabin Tambrea and Traute Hoess
