Chilean director Ruiz takes on the post-impressionist painter’s biography, but he’s more interested in figures and ideas real and unreal surrounding the character of Klimt than his actual life story, resulting in a heady drama that feels more like one too many glasses of wine than cerebral. The best parts are when Ruiz keeps the camera spinning and plays with shadows and mirrors, but this is not the best example of either his skill as a director nor the genre of doppelganger/mysterious appearances narratives.
