Synopsis by Cammila Collar
This documentary takes a look at the massive cultural upheaval that upset the art world when Impressionism first took hold in the creative community in the late 1800's. Thought by many to be rebellious and even scandalous, the artists who dared to paint in styles that intentionally veered away from standard realism fought for over three decades to be taken seriously.
