About
Rent on Apple TV+ or buy on Apple TV+.
Composer Gustav von Aschenbach travels to Venice for health reasons. There, he becomes obsessed with the stunning beauty of an adolescent Polish boy named Tadzio who is staying with his family at the same Grand Hôtel des Bains on the Lido as Aschenbach.
A hauntingly fragile performance captures a composer's slow erosion as he succumbs to an impossible fixation. Lush, decaying canals provide a feverish backdrop for this sensory feast of obsession and impending ruin.
