Carlos Kleiber: Traces to Nowhere
A film by Eric Schultz Arthaus 101553
Enigmatic, charismatic, reclusive and difficult, Carlos Kleiber was “an intriguing, contradictory” figure, “made all the more alluring by his refusal to play the media game”, wrote Jeremy Nicholas. Eric Schulz takes as the starting point for his fascinating documentary Kleiber’s final journey to his home in Slovenia, including along the way recollections by such friends and colleagues as Plácido Domingo, Brigitte Fassbaender and Manfred Honeck – and the first and only interview with his sister Veronika.
