Paul a Mayerling, un ritratto is a personal and choral account of a life inextricably linked to cinema. In the mid-2000s, chance led me to meet Paul Vecchiali online. From that moment on, a relationship was born, marked by lively discussions about cinema and life.

After moving to Provence, Vecchiali started shooting a series of films that have Villa Mayerling as their main focus. Esotericism and intrigues bath the film around the character of Alain, a shady summer worker.
