This is the script of painter and filmmaker Peter Greenaway’s latest film, the story of an intelligent man whose last big adventure is very likely to be death. He wants to make his death elegant and sensible, fearless and forthright. He wants to make his life related to its beginning, which did not start where he lives now, in New York, but with this grandmother in the mediaeval town of Lucca, Italy, once also a place of priapic towers and phallic skyscrapers. He takes a sabbatical from his life and journeys to seek out his grandmother’s origins, but also to attempt to write one hundred stories about pride, ambition, and hubris, built around content characteristic of both of these places.
