Narrated by Hugh Dancy and featuring Claire Danes as the voice of Georgia O’Keeffe, this captivating new documentary delves into the life and legacy of the pioneering artist who transformed the American art scene with her bold, intimate depictions of nature.

From her early years in the Midwest to her rise in New York’s vibrant art world, and finally to the remote deserts of New Mexico, Georgia O’Keeffe: The Brightness of Light traces the evolution of an artist whose work blurred the line between abstraction and realism. O’Keeffe’s enduring influence on modernism, her bold defiance of artistic conventions, and her life in the vast solitude of the Southwest are brought to life in this rich, meditative journey by director Paul Wagner. 2024, U.S., DCP, 118 minutes. Recommended for 16+
