Pandora’s Legacy

Pandoras Vermächtnis

Austria 2024 Documentary cor | p&b 87’

A journey through the family universe of GW Pabst (1885-1967), a giant of early cinema, told through the eyes of the woman who was his great love and lifelong partner: Trude Pabst. The exchange of letters between the lovers bears witness to the conflicting standards of the 1920s, reflected in GW Pabst’s films and also in the couple’s relationship. The portrait of the family deepens as we meet Trude’s and GW’s grandchildren today: Marion, a committed environmental activist, Daniel, a composer, and Ben, a dinosaur researcher, struggle with their grandparents’ legacy. Their stories merge with Pabst’s film clips, the voice of Trude Pabst, diary entries, metaphorical images and surreal landscapes.

Presented at the International Film Festival Rotterdam.
