Wittgenstein
“About what one cannot speak, one must remain silent,“ said Ludwig Wittgenstein, one of the most important philosophers of the 20th century and a man who exchanged the comforts of one of the wealthiest families in the Austro-Hungarian Empire for a life powered by doubts, in search of universal principles of language. A very compelling portrait depicts Wittgenstein’s unconventional life and conveys his passion for linguistics, philosophy of thoughts and especially for the possibilities and limitations of language. Visually captivating and thematically provocative, the film is one of Derek Jarman’s last movies.
