    • Synopsis
    • Torben Skjødt Jensen's elegant documentary is a collage of memories and reflections on one of cinema's greatest directors. Originally shot and released in 1995, the documentary is now restored with bonus materials.

      Through interviews, historical writings, and rare archival footage, a portrait of Dreyer emerges: an austere perfectionist, yes, but also a passionate man possessing a genuine sense of humor.
