- A tale of lust, greed, and one woman's scorn.
- In documentary style, Pacino tells the story of how he came to do Oscar Wilde's Salomé. He travels to the Mojave Desert ("dessert?"), to Ireland and the UK to show the viewer who Oscar Wilde was as a private person and as a writer. Pacino shares his love for Wilde, and the story of Salomé in particular, through rehearsals, costume meetings, and more behind-the-scenes material. Celebrities like Gore Vidal and Bono also share their views on Oscar Wilde.—Rob
- "WILDE SALOME: The Documentary" is, as Al Pacino describes it, a kind of "collage of a film", representing the struggles and highs and lows of presenting a challenging and unique piece of writing by one of the literary geniuses of the 19th century, Oscar Wilde. Wilde Salome explores the complexities of Oscar Wilde's acclaimed play "Salome'," Wilde himself, and the birth of a rising star: actress Jessica Chastain. The film offers an unprecedented behind the scenes look at Pacino's odyssey. Pacino's raw exploration is one of obsession--and above all, passion.
- Pacino takes us on a journey as he unravels and re-interprets Oscar Wilde's once banned and most controversial work SALOME, a scintillating tale of lust, greed and one woman's scorn. Pacino uses an uncanny mix of documentary, fiction and improvisation to get to the root of SALOME', which promises to be a profound vision of religion, politics, violence, and sexuality from one of the greatest artists of our time.—barry navidi
