"In cinema and entertainment, there are few legends like Orson Welles, the director of classics such as 'Citizen Kane' and 'Othello', among many others. He, however, had a full life of controversy and great achievements - in a story that must be known by cinephiles and newcomers alike. This documentary also comes at the perfect timing: it is released along with 'The Other Side of the Wind', Welles’ unfinished film finally released by Netflix. This documentary helps to answer, or at least analyze, the autobiographical aspects in Welles’ last great work."
