ALMA & OSKAR<\/strong><\/span> Alma & Oskar<\/em> explores the passionate and tumultuous three-year relationship between the Grand Dame of Viennese society Alma Mahler (1879-1964) and the Austrian artist and enfant terrible Oskar Kokoschka (1886-1980). In the early 1900s, Kokoschka was an up-and-coming painter, influenced by the work of Gustav Klimt yet with his own distinctive expressionist style. Considered one of the greatest expressionist artists of the 20th century, Kokoschka created his most famous work using Alma as a model, and the years of their relationship marked the most prodigious period in his life.<\/p>\n Director:<\/strong> Dieter Berner <\/p>\n AMERIKATSI<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n In 1947, Charlie repatriates back to Armenia only to be greeted by the harsh reality of Soviet Communism.
