The Passion of Anna
Why this pick
Like Watkins’s portrait, it treats emotional crisis through fractured encounters, direct-to-camera testimony, and an austere Scandinavian landscape, blurring performed drama with searching psychological inquiry.

Why this pick
Like Watkins’s portrait, it treats emotional crisis through fractured encounters, direct-to-camera testimony, and an austere Scandinavian landscape, blurring performed drama with searching psychological inquiry.
Why this pick
A formally audacious artist biography that interweaves life, art, memory, and theatrical stylisation rather than reducing its subject to a conventional chronological account.
Why this pick
Its expansive, tactile historical world and meditative attention to an artist’s struggle make creativity feel inseparable from social violence, faith, and lived experience.
Why this pick
This rigorously anti-biographical portrait trusts period detail, duration, and performance over explanation, creating an unusually direct encounter with an artist’s work and world.
Why this pick
For Watkins’s appetite for invented documentary forms and encyclopedic history: Greenaway builds a deadpan archival universe whose accumulating fragments become both comic and strangely mournful.
