Written by LAUREN GUNDERSON
Directed by CARY JORDAHL

The true story of once-prominent non-objective artist Rudolf Bauer.  The incredible life of the man whose work the Guggenheim Museum in NY was built to house, who fiery lifelong love affair with Guggenheim curator Hilla Rebay lasted decades, whose imprisonment by the Nazis didn’t stop him from sketching on scraps, and whose legacy was threatened by the deepest betrayal. Why did the genius who survived all that suddenly stop painting? This is a shocking and moving untold story of powerful art, powerful passion, and just as powerful downfall. In this case life really is art.
