Based on the short story Burning Secret by Stefan Zweig, Burning Secret is about the son of an American diplomat who befriends a mysterious baron while staying at a spa in Austria in the 1920s. Filmed with sensory details and nuances, this symbol-filled story is set in Austria in the 1920s. The lonely 12-year-old son of an American diplomat, treated for asthma in a country spa, is befriended by a sweet and mysterious baron and falls in love with him. During a story of his war experiences, the baron uncovers the scar of an American soldier and, saying ‘no seeing-no feeling’, threads a needle through it. Little does the boy realise that it is his turn to be wounded. But soon his beloved friend mercilessly pushes him aside and turns his seductive attention to his mother. The boy’s jealousy and feelings of betrayal become uncontrollable.
Written and directed by Andrew Birkin, the film stars Klaus Maria Brandauer, Faye Dunaway and David Eberts. The film won the Young Jury Prize at the Brussels Film Festival in 1989 and the same year David Eberts won the Special Jury Prize at the Venice Film Festival.
