Synopsis

Amsterdam, 1642. Whilst painting a commissioned portrait of the Amsterdam guild of rifle shooters, the painter Rembrandt van Rijn comes across a murder plot the people he’s portraying are involved in. Determined to uncover the conspiracy, Rembrandt processes his allegations in the picture.

MUBI's take

Peter Greenaway, the trouble-making bard of haute perversity best known for The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover, showed no signs of slowing down with this award-winning, extravagant look at a famed painter using his art to take a stand. Starring Martin Freeman.
