Wilder & Me

WILDER & ME is the coming-of-age story of Calista (Hawke), a young musician backpacking in Los Angeles, when she meets legendary director Billy Wilder (Waltz) and his screenwriter I.A.L. Diamond (Turturro), and finds herself invited to work on the set of their movie “Fedora” in Corfu.

Over one heady Greek summer, Calista falls in love with cinema, and with life, on a journey of self-discovery. Thrilled by her new adventure, Calista then follows Billy to Munich and Paris to continue the shoot with leading actor William Holden (Hamm), where she experiences her first love. Realising his star is on the wane, Billy navigates the changing world of cinema in the twilight of his career, while Calista’s own career is just beginning. The time she spends in this glamorous new life will change her forever.
