Mistral

Story

Synopsis

In the small French town of Arles, the brilliant artist Vincent van Gogh lived through his star period – with yellow sunflowers, a red vineyard, Arlesian women and men, all transferred onto his magical canvases. Here, he, as lonely as anyone, called out to his fellow artists, dreaming of creating a Southern School, where artists could live and work in harmony with nature and with each other. No one responded. Only one came – the genius Paul Gauguin. However, their relationship resembled the famous bullfight in Arles in some ways. And then there was the mistral – the cold northwestern wind blowing along the Mediterranean coast of France from deep autumn to spring, bringing with it anxiety and unease…
