Kaleidoscope The World of James Joyce Is There One Who Understands Me?
James Joyce was born in Dublin 100 years ago. At the age of 20 he left for Paris to begin a self-imposed exile that was to last most of his life. Dublin, however, remained the inspiration for his writing. This film, complete with many previously unseen interviews, shows the obstacles that lay in the path of Dubliners, Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Ulysses and Finnegans Wake, the books that were to make Joyce one of the most famous and influential writers of this century.
