About Johannes Kepler - Storming the Heavens
Nowadays we associate Johannes Kepler with his famous laws of planetary motion. But the history of his discoveries is a drama of Shakespearian proportions - full of intrigue, passion, depravity and corruption.
Directed by Christian Twente, Johannes Kepler - Storming the Heavens leans on a strong ensemble — Christoph Bach, Heiko Pinkowski, Ben Janssen — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2020.
