One of the most gifted and controversial directors of our age, Roman Polanski has lived a life of extremes - from a childhood in the Krakow ghetto and the many accolades of his film career, to the murder of his wife and the personal scandals which would see him forever exiled from America. In Roman Polanski: A Film Memoir, long-time friend Andrew Braunsberg and documentarian Laurent Bouzereau team up to provide one of the most in-depth portrayals of the director ever committed to film. Shot while Polanski was under house arrest in 2009, Roman Polanski is a humane, unflinching depiction of a filmmaker whose style has captivated the world, but whose personal life ensured he would forever remain apart from it.
