not rated; 90 minutes; in English Directed by: Ali Ray
The Impressionists are the most popular group in art history -- millions flock every year to marvel at their masterpieces. But, to begin with, they were

Impressionism was born and the art world changed forever. This spectacular exhibition brings fresh eyes to this extraordinary tale of passion and rebellion told not only by historians and curators, but in the words of those who witnessed the Dawn of impressionism: the artists, press, and people of Paris during that fateful exhibition.
