A feature film that traces the 50-year journey behind Confessions of Felix Krull, revealing the writer's hidden struggle with his homosexuality. Though a literary superstar with a polished, upper-class façade and a married life with six children, Mann's diaries expose an insecure man suppressing deep desires. The film follows Mann's creative and personal exile—from Eltville to Paris and Lisbon—using archival letters and diary entries alongside dramatized scenes. It blurs the lines between Mann and his seductive alter ego Felix Krull, both masters of deception navigating identity, longing, and survival amid exile and political upheaval. This hybrid documentary unveils the fragile, often hidden man behind the myth.
