Map of dissolution

Vincentiu

The color of solitude. The taste of freedom. The fear. "Ludwig" is a new tale about Hamlet. A new story about power and an age of dreams and limits of ash. About madness and the rules of real life. About life like trip or form of search. Ludwig of Wittelsbach is not present in this movie. In fact, like others films, "Ludwig" is a Visconti's self-portrait. Same crisis and same answer, same cycle of hypocrisy and same morgue. Ludwig is a victim but not of his era, error or illness. He is the victim of desire, like every romantic hero or existentialistic character. The action is the shadow of Visconti-Berger relation, and form of self-recognition. The tall of a fall and a disillusion's map. A contour of any game and a sacrifice without value.
