Uncover the mystery

Documentary

An in-depth investigation into the private world of the American writer J. D. Salinger (1919-2010), who lived most of his life behind the impenetrable wall of a self-imposed seclusion: how his dramatic experiences during World War II influenced his life and work, his relationships with very young women, his obsessive writing methods, his many literary secrets.

VIBE

A quiet, contemplative dive into the mind of a literary icon. It feels like piecing together fragments of a reclusive genius, exploring the shadows of war and the intensity of creation. A deeply personal, almost sacred, artistic examination.
