BIOGRAPHY
The anatomy of a myth. 10 years after his death, a fresh and unflinching
look at the most legendary actor of all times through the most beautiful
documentary ever shot about the icon Marlon Brando.
Summer 1943. A young 19-year-old man dressed simply in jeans, T-shirt
and a red Fedora arrives in New York with just a few dollars in his pocket.
His dream is to become the greatest actor in the world. 11 years later,
after appearing in the films A Streetcar named Desire, The Wild One,
and On the Waterfront, he earned the title of «King of Actors». He not
only revolutionized the profession with a new way of acting; in just a few
epic roles, he also became the icon and a real inspiration for an entire
generation of youth.
