Director Jack Hazan and writer David Mingay (Rude Boy) had access to David Hockney and his circle from 1971 to 1973, a critical period for the internationally-acclaimed artist, during which time they crafted this ground-breaking and enthralling docu-drama, celebrating Hockney's life, work and milieu.With appearances by such art scene icons (and subjects of Hockney's paintings) as Celia Birtwell, Ossie Clark, Henry Geldzahler and Patrick Proctor, this mesmerising portrait is presented here, along with little-seen archive documentaries on Hockney, for the first time... on Blu-ray.

Semi-fictionalised documentary biography of British artist David Hockney in which the painter plays himself. After a difficult break-up, Hockney is left unable to paint, much to the concern of his friends. In time he gets back to the canvas, however, painting a swimming pool as the setting for his new work. The film provides a portrayal of London's art scene and gay culture during the early 1970s.
