There’s never been a biopic quite like this! Through the character of Armand, we become immersed in the places, people, and things that impacted Vincent Van Gogh and inspired him to create timeless paintings that continue to resonate with viewers over a century after his unfortunate death by suicide. The production was made possible by the tireless work of scores of skilled painters from more than 20 countries around the world, as well as skilled animators and filmmakers who devoted 6 years to complete the project. There aren’t many artists who would warrant such an endeavor, but Vincent Van Gogh is certainly a worthy recipient of such treatment.
