As a freelance photographer, Lette Valeska made her living from children's photos before specialising in film star portraits. Director Morris Engel, a pioneer of independent film, tells of the life of a photographer couple like the one he led with his wife Ruth Orkin in this New York film that is as romantic as it is realistic. A pioneer of the handheld camera, Engel is considered a decisive influence on the French Nouvelle Vague.

Before the film there will be an introduction by Daniel Kothenschulte (film critic & film historian).
