- Born in 1471 in Nuremberg, then one of the intellectual centers of Europe, Albrecht Dürer showed an early talent for figurative art. Dürer hired representatives to distribute his engravings throughout the continent, adorned with the monogram "AD", the protector of his copyright before its time.

Combining reconstructions and expert insights, this documentary explores the biography of an avant-garde artist haunted by death and the fear of the afterlife.
