Starred, co-written, produced and directed by Orson Welles, Citizen Kane considered as one of the cinematic masterpiece, telling the story of newspaper magnate Charles Foster Kane in a series of flashbacks.

To create one the best film ever made, Welles employed innovative, ground breaking cinematic and storytelling techniques, creating a layered film that appeal to both cinephiles and general audience alike.

"I don't think any word can explain a man's life," says one of the searchers through the warehouse of treasures left behind by Charles Foster Kane, but what Citizen Kane truly about the security, hope and innocence of childhood, which a man tried to spend his life seeking to regain.
