Synopsis

The film is about Egon Schiele, one of the most provocative artists of the Vienna of the early twentieth century. His paintings are considered really radical by the society of the time, while other artists believe that they are exquisite, as is the case of Gustav Klimt. The painter's life will be marked by two beautiful women: his first muse, Gerti, who also happens to be his sister and a 17-year-old girl, Wally, whom he painted in one of his most famous works 'The Girl and Death' and that he became the great love of his life. This Austrian film is directed by Dieter Berner and starring Noah Saavedra in the skin of the painter, Maresi Reigner as his sister and Valerie Pachner, who plays Wally.
