Thomas Bernhard in Madrid.
This portrait of the great Austrian writer combines a brilliant monologue delivered by Thomas Bernhard and the artful film work of Ferry Radax.
Thomas Bernhard rarely engaged in on-camera interviews and conversations. However, he was extremely taken with the television films created by Krista Fleischmann and recognized – both confidently and with foresight – their lasting value for posterity: “I feel this portrait is an entirely successful document whose usefulness will grow.”
This film reveals, under the image of the provocative, misanthropic Austrian writer whose life was peppered with scandals and altercations, a funny and cheerful character, a "ruthless anarchist".
In this film, Austrian author Thomas Bernhard (1931–1989) talks about his childhood, his youth, his life in Austria, and his coming to terms, as a writer, with all the experiences of dying – his own and those of the culture of his time.
