In this playful, subversive, and challenging take on artist documentaries, the German painter Albert Oehlen steps behind the camera to direct a portrait of himself—in life and at work—casting Udo Kier as his alter ego, and musician Kim Gordon as his inner self, interviewer, and judge. This iconoclastic film merges reality and fiction, past and present, as the Los Angeles-based artist explores motivation, emotion, inspiration, and desire.
