1871. Monet is a penniless refugee in a small Dutch town. France is at war. No clients, no gallery, no income. His wife Camille starts teaching French to locals in Zaandam. She's keeping this family alive so he can stand outside all day chasing light on water. 25 canvases in four months. The golden shimmer on the canal. The soft weight of the evening sky. Who would guess it was painted by a guy who couldn't afford his own paint?
