troubled world comes this definitive, award-winning documentary directed by
David Bickerstaff. Showcasing Van Gogh’s iconic works like never before and
featuring exclusive interviews with the curatorial team at the Van Gogh Museum,
this EXHIBITION ON SCREEN favourite makes a much-desired return for at-home
virtual screenings.
