Synopsis by Jason Buchanan

Star Trek alum Leonard Nimoy delivers a critically acclaimed, one-man performance as the Dutch post-impressionist painter responsible for such masterpieces as Starry Night in this filmed performance captured live at the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis and directed for television by Bonnie Burns. Based on actual letters exchanged between Vincent Van Gogh and his brother Theo and written from the perspective of the artist's well-known sibling, Nimoy's play offers an intimate and highly personalized view of the tormented artist's passionate life as images of his work are projected onto the background to show just how Van Gogh's turbulent personal life affected his remarkable body of work.
