Kim Novak will forever be remembered for her dual role in Hitchcocks \Vertigo\, in which she plays a woman forced to transform into someone else to fulfill a mans obsession.

In the 1950s at the age of 20, Novak finds herself thrown into the limelight. With no acting experience, the young woman who dreamed of becoming a painter undergoes a makeover which will transform her into a glamorous bombshell. Her anxiety on set is compounded by an intimidating studio head, demanding directors, and a misogynist press. This first documentary about Kim Novak, her career and her emancipation from the Hollywood system, tells the story of how this box office sensation who worked with some of the greatest directors of the era takes on the Hollywood studio system and reclaims her life - with the exclusive participation of the actress herself.

This success was not foreseeable at first, because at the time of its release the film was a flop at the box office. The world of the Blade Runner is oppressively topical today. In his cult film, Ridley Scott conjures up a cold, rain-lashed, neon-glowing big city moloch who plunges into a social, economic and environmental dystopia. Today problems such as climate change, surveillance, overpowering corporations and artificial intelligence are more present than ever and the streets are populated with homeless people between high-rise buildings. Since Fritz Langs Metropolis, there has not been a science fiction film that, thanks to its production design and special effects, has developed such a visual impact as Blade Runner.

How the film nevertheless managed to become one of the most influential science fiction films of all time, this documentary tells viewers using behind-the-scenes material from various sets, photos, original locations in Los Angeles and illuminating interviewees with those involved in the unforgettable Film production.

How could something like this even occur? This documentary, in which Malcolm McDowell (main character in A Clockwork Orange) collaborates, aims to take the audience on an adventure that answers that very question, but also poses an even greater one: can a movie change the world?
