Incessant Visions

He drew sketches on tiny pieces of paper and sent them, from the trenches, to a young cellist who was waiting for him in Berlin. She thought he was a genius, and after WW1 she helped him become the busiest architect in Germany. When she planned to leave him for a communist poet, he built a perfect house for her in which every detail was meticulously planned. When the Nazis came to power, the couple fled the house and Germany forever. Erich and Louise Mendelsohn wandered between continents, between world wars, between success and failure. The buildings that Erich built around the world, scattered like the trail of their journey, have shaped the history of architecture. Incessant Visions is a cinematic meditation about the untold story of Erich Mendeloshn, whose life and career were as enigmatic and tragic as the path of the century.
