Robert Wilson - The Beauty of the Mysterious.
Narration by Carl von Karstedt


Looking back at more than half a century of mysterious artistic creation by Robert Wilson, this documentary shares insight about Wilson's work while trying to crack a unique artistic code. Why are people moved to tears when Robert Wilson puts minimalistic petrol pumps into a production of Shakespeare’s sonnets? Why does merciless repetition change our understanding of something? Together with Tom Waits, Willem Dafoe or Marina Abramović we trace back our own experience of Robert Wilson’s art.
