<p>A dramatization of the time that Van Gogh spent in Brixton in the 1870s--a period before he became a painter and one that changed him completely. Vincent develops a rapport with a widow twice his age, which blossoms into a full-blown love affair, only to be cruelly curtailed by the arrival of his fiercely puritan young sister. From the author <i>of Cressida, Mrs. Klein, </i> and the recent adaptation of Wedekind's <i>Lulu</i>.</p>
