Portrait of a polymath and eccentric artist of our time, in theater, cinema and plastic arts�

Bob Wilson asks questions about his theatrical work, and gives the viewer some of the keys to his aesthetic search, with many extracts from his work, including Video 50 (1978), the CIVIL warS (1984), Hamlet Machine (1986), The Black Rider (1990), Mr. Bojangles� Memory (1991), The Magic Flute (1991), Watermill Foundation, and A Portrait (1992).
After talking about his meetings with some of the last century�s most famous figures (Charlie Chaplin, Marlene Dietrich, Charles H. Coles, and so on), Bob Wilson tells us about his future plans. In particular, the Watermill Foundation in the United States, where he would like to be able to open theater workshops to young people from all over the world.
