This powerful documentary that had its world premiere at Friday Harbor Film Festival in October 2024, brings to life the dramatic final years of Vincent van Gogh. Using his personal letters and set against the backdrop of the UK’s largest-ever Van Gogh exhibition at The National Gallery, this film offers a fresh lens on the misunderstood master—his art, his passion, and the stories that fueled his creative genius.
