Two of the most important artists of our time, painter and sculptor Anselm Kiefer, and filmmaker Wim Wenders, coalesce in the documentary film Anselm, to create a unique cinematic experience chronicling Kiefer’s art and life. For over two years, Wenders traced Kiefer’s path from his native Germany to his current home in France, making connections between his life, his locales, the cycles of history, and the sometimes harrowing course of human existence, across a prolific and profound career spanning more than five decades.
