Vincent van Gogh's obsessive devotion to his art engulfs, consumes, and finally destroys him. The apostate religious leaders do not like his zeal for God and they frown on his social activism and care for the poor in a coal mining town. He returns home to his father's house where he is rejected by a woman he obsessively loves, takes up with a prostitute who leaves because he is too poor, and discovers painting, which he pursues while agonizing that his vision exceeds his ability to execute. His brother, Theo van Gogh, provides financial and moral support, while Vincent lives off and on with the critical Paul Gauguin. Vincent begins experiencing hallucinations and seizures and voluntarily commits himself to a mental institution. He signs himself out, and with Theo's help, returns to a rural area to paint, where he ultimately shoots himself in despair of never being able to put what he sees on canvas.

L'histoire de l'amitié et de la rivalité entre Paul Cézanne et Émile Zola, tous deux natifs d'Aix-en-Provence. Le premier, peintre, fils de banquier, qui n'obtiendra qu'une reconnaissance relative de son vivant alors qu'il devient l'un des pères fondateurs de l'art moderne ; le deuxième, écrivain, orphelin de père immigré et de milieu modeste, qui devient chef de file du mouvement naturaliste dans la France tourmentée de la deuxième moitié du XIX siècle.
