SINOPSE: Robert Mapplethorpe’s portraits, images of calla lilies, and chronicles of New York City’s underground BDSM scene remain touchstones of 20th-century photography even now, nearly three decades after his death from complications of HIV/Aids in 1989. Revisiting the titular photographer’s legacy, the film begins at the moment just before he takes up residence in the Chelsea Hotel. There, Mapplethorpe begins to amass a portfolio of images – and, at the same time, to explore his formerly supressed attraction to men. But Mapplethorpe’s relentless ambition – as he says in one early scene, “I can’t just be Mapplethorpe the photographer”, fancying himself a “modern Michelangelo” – threatens to tear apart the relationships he cherishes the most. Official selection at Tribeca.
