In his last film, actor Klaus Kinski directs himself in this story of notorious 18th-century composer/violinst Niccolo Paganini. Mainly because of the emphasis on Paganini's sex life, the film's producers called the film "pornographic" (although there are no graphic sex scenes) and sued Kinski. The film had a very spotty release, Kinski never acted again, and he died three years later.
