A young artist in Mussolini’s Italy must work for the propaganda machine if he wants to continue to paint. His obsession with his muse Mathild drives him to make any sacrifice. But his adoration for her forces him into new and dangerous circles. The art world of 1940s Rome is beguiling and glamorous but threaded deep within is a frightening world where no-one should be trusted and it is very easy to disappear without a trace.
