Corazón de Plata
Inspired by Christopher Marlowe's The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus and Goethe's Faust, Faustus develops an obsession with his namesake, Johann Georg Faust. As Faustus delves deeper into man and legend, he enters a labyrinthine realm. Inspired by Christopher Marlowe's The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus and Goethe's Faust among others, Faustus (Jacob Faust) develops an obsession with his namesake, Johann Georg Faust, a German itinerant alchemist, astrologer, and magician of the German Renaissance. As Faustus delves deeper into man and legend, he enters a labyrinthine realm of supernatural dealings, intrigue, and mystery. Full of romance, temptation, psychological horror, music and poetry, Faustbook was Jacob's passion project until his untimely end at age 25, when he was unjustly shot and killed by two officers of the San Diego Police Department during a routine traffic stop. As the artist community mourned, the 2006 version was rushed to release in his honor, if unfinished. 20 years exactly since Jacob's life was snatched away (04/04/05), this film is being released anew. It has been remastered, recut, and re-envisioned by director Eric Leiser and composer and sound designer Jeffrey Leiser in honor of Jacob's legacy. —Albino Fawn Productions
