As World War I subsides, Vienna, the heart of Central Europe, is on the brink of collapse. The Austro-Hungarian Empire is disintegrating, and the city is gripped by the Spanish flu, which claims the life of 28-year-old artist Egon Schiele. Just months prior, his work was celebrated in a major exhibition, showcasing his unique style that captured humanity's restlessness and desires. This was also a time of great change in the art world, with the death of his mentor Gustav Klimt and the emergence of new ideas in art, literature, and music. The documentary Klimt & Schiele - Eros and Psyche explores this pivotal moment, examining three stunning exhibitions that highlight the work of Klimt, Schiele, and other notable artists.
