Overview

The enigma of Vincent Van Gogh 125 years after his death is explored through an extraordinary contemporary play which was first written and performed by the late actor Leonard Nimoy in the 1970's, and brought back to life by a talented French actor named Jean-Michel Richaud. The documentary team traces Van Gogh's footsteps in the south of France where he painted most of his masterpieces, in Belgium where he was a preacher to coal miners, and in Holland, where he was born.
