Synopsis

"Arriving like a comet, he danced on tables, drunk with passion for life and art and his ending was the tragedy of true genius like Van Gogh and Mozart.
He was Modigliani." 

Paris 1919. Two men - artists, Amedeo Modigliani (Andy Garcia) and Pablo Picasso (Omid Djalili) have a bitter rivalry fuelled by brilliance, arrogance and passion. But Modigliani also has another passion in his life, Jeanne Hebuterne (Elsa Zlyberstein), a beautiful Catholic girl whose only fault in her father's eyes was to fall in love with Modigliani, a Jew.

This is the remarkable story of Modigliani's brilliant but tortured genius and the great conflicts of passion he had to face. This is the true story of one amazing man and one of the greatest love tragedies in art history.
