Loosely inspired from the life of French painter Paul Gauguin, Charles Strickland, a middle-aged London stockbroker who abandons all responsibility to become an artist. Strickland pursues his dream to the extent of leaving his family, betraying his friends and associates, and living a life of unending hedonism in Tahiti. Undeniably brilliant as a painter, Strickland is also a good-for-nothing, until he is forced to confront himself on the threshold of death. (texte officiel du distributeur)

I was kind of waiting for something more, for the film to really captivate me. But in the end, it turned out to be just an average biographical movie, which is also somewhat masked because the name of Paul Gauguin isn't actually mentioned here. At least nothing had to be authorized... Changing the color filter didn't help much.
