Synopsis

Thomas Hoepker is one of the most important living photographers worldwide. His pictures became icons of photojournalism. He was the first German to become a full member of the legendary Magnum photo agency, which he later headed as its chairman. At the end of last year Thomas Hoepker was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. The man whose art has become part of the collective memory is slowly vanishing even his own. A stroke of fate that he consciously wants to counter, however, with a lot of humour and eagerness to work. His last one big dream: A road trip through the USA (his home for more than 30 years) together with his wife Christine. A journey that will also be his last big photo reportage for a book project and will be the bracket for his life's work.
