    If there ever were to be a story of not just how transitory beauty is, but of how shallow too - then it has to be this documentary film. Kristina Lindström starts us off in the grubby and filthy apartment of Björn Andrésen. His neighbours are threatening to have him evicted if he doesn't up his game... Who is he and why should we care? Well we are quickly taken back fifty years to auditions held by Luchino Visconti for his soon to be made "Death in Venice". He is looking to cast the part of "Tadzio" - the stunningly beautiful, angelic, young man who turns the head of just about everyone in this...
