LOVING VINCENT, the first feature film entirely hand-painted with oil paint, is a declaration of love to a world star. Based on 120 works and 800 letters by Vincent van Gogh, the film tells the story of the last year of the painter's life from the perspective of those he portrayed, mixed with fictional elements. The film was first shot with actors. Then, in a lengthy process, 125 artists painted over these shots in the style of Vincent van Gogh. The result is more than 65,000 images that bring Van Gogh's works to life.
