A documentary about the legendary film master Orson Welles. Directed by Morgan Neville, who won an Oscar for Best Documentary with "20 Feet from Stardom," this film tells the intriguing story of Orson Welles' final 15 years. The "wonder boy" who made "Citizen Kane" found himself in the 1970s no longer in the limelight, becoming a wandering artist striving to return to Hollywood with "The Other Side of the Wind." He spent years filming a movie that depicts an aging director's struggle to complete his last major work. The film used a guerrilla-style shooting technique, as Welles and a group of young dreamers faced chaotic challenges while negotiating with financiers, refusing to bow to fate. Welles passed away in 1985, and this unfinished work became one of the most well-known incomplete films in cinema history, with the footage left in a cellar for decades. "Loved After Death" brings together former collaborators of Welles, including Peter Bogdanovich, Frank Marshall, Oja Kodar, and Welles' daughter Beatrice Welles. They share insider stories unknown to many, completing the life’s final chapter of one of cinema's greatest directors, introducing audiences to this talented, unconventional, and defiantly resilient filmmaker.
