Tim Jenison, a Texas based inventor, attempts to solve one of the greatest mysteries in all art: How did Dutch Master Johannes Vermeer manage to paint so photo-realistically 150 years before the invention of photography? Spanning a decade, Jenison's adventure takes him to Holland, on a pilgrimage to the North coast of Yorkshire to meet artista David Hockney, and eventually even to Buckingham Palace. The epic research project Jenison embarques on is as extraordinary as what he discovers.

I’ve never seen anything like this before. An incredibly compelling account of one of art history’s most controversial experiments.
Penn and Teller are involved, so you know it’s magical.
Excellent documentary about work and obsession and Vermeer. It’s fascinating to be on the journey as it shapes the people experiencing it.
This guy’s drive for perfection is unmatched. Very unique and interesting documentary.
Very nteresting look into art and how it is made.
It's a simple documentary but the themes and the main subject are so engaging that it catches your attention from beginning to end.
Fascinating journey of one man’s obsession to duplicate Vermeer’s methods. Incredible dedication.
Science and art collide in a fascinating documentary.
Movie’s not so amazing as the work itself is and its production makes for a compelling story that couldn’t be told better in another format.
A fascinating little study. Incredible concept and incredible results. Film is well executed; leaves me intrigued by both Tim and Vermeer.
