More than 62,000 oil paintings bring the story of Van Gogh's life and death to the screen in the world's first feature-length painted animation. Inspired by a letter Van Gogh penned before he died, he noted that "we cannot speak other than by our paintings".
Oscar-winning filmmaker Hugh Welchman and Polish painter Dorota Kobiela made a film doing exactly that, setting out to tell his story the way he himself would. Every single frame is an oil painting with the noir-like detective plot drawn from the artist's many letters. A truly astonishing visual feast.
