Introduction to Juris Ivens

A "Flying Dutchman" who was permanently banished by God, was declared a traitor by his own country, and was blacklisted by the FBI - Juris Ivens, a documentary film master. He has been making movies since he was 13 years old and is known as a "pioneer film poet". It was not until the age of 90 that he completed the shocking final work "The Story of the Wind". Wherever the world is burning, he casts his camera, always focusing on ordinary people. Almost all the changes in the world in the 20th century were frozen in the lens of his camera, turning them into epic images.
