An enquiry-style portrait of the master of melodrama, Douglas Sirk. His life was the ultimate melodrama, from which all of his films took inspiration. Through the testimonies of those close to him and previously unheard stories from his wife’s journal, we get closer to this man shrouded in mystery.
