ARTIST, The

Soundtrack to the Original Motion Picture; an independent film of star-crossed lovers, secrets revealed, the enduring pain of loss, and the encapsulating psychological hold the powerful wield over the powerless.

From the critically-acclaimed creators of “The Receipt” (2008) comes the “The Artist”, an independent film which tells the story of Alex, a comic-book connoisseur who is entering his final year of college. Through a psychology class he meets, and falls for Rebecca, and as his relationship with her grows, he discovers that hiding beneath her soft, caring surface is a troubled past and signs of continued anguish. Reminded of buried trauma from his own past, Alex begins to confuse past and present, fantasy and reality, and weaves for himself a delusion wherein he comes to believe that he is the real-life hero from his comic-book sketches. As delusions unravel and reality sets in, “The Artist” becomes a story of star-crossed lovers, secrets revealed, the enduring pain of loss, and the encapsulating psychological hold the powerful wield over the powerless.
