The artist Monet comes to life in this charming live-action drama of the birth of Impressionism.
Artist Claude Monet spends a glorious summer
painting in a revolutionary style aboard his studio-boat with his friend Renoir.
The bliss ends when his father cuts his allowance, creditors try to confiscate his belongings, and a pompous critic attacks his work.
Without money for rent and his paintings seemingly worthless, Monet runs off to spare his family more pain. Luckily, Monet has an ally in young Daniel, an aspiring artist. He has his own troubles, including a hard-working mother who opposes his artistic ambitions. Abandoned by his father, Daniel refuses to let Monet do the same to his son.
While Monet shows Daniel a new way of seeing the world through his new Impressionist art, Daniel helps Monet see the importance of family.
