In this interview, directors Julien Johan and Hugues Nancy look back at a turning point in art history.
150 years after the first independent exhibition of Monet, Renoir, Degas and their peers, 1874, The Birth of Impressionism revisits the bold collective gesture that challenged academic rules and reshaped modern painting.
Blending archives, fiction, and a striking 3D reconstruction of the 1874 exhibition, the film brings to life the youth, doubts, and creative freedom that sparked one of the most influential artistic revolutions.
