The Bioscope brings back this month the hugely popular Loving Vincent, the world’s first fully painted animated feature film. Each frame in this incredible film is an oil painting on canvas, created by a team of 125 painters using van Gogh’s techniques. Conceptualised by painter Dorota Kobiela, who has spent considerable time studying Vincent van Gogh’s techniques and letters, Loving Vincent follows the artist's dramatic life and revisits the circumstances surrounding his death.

Loving Vincent premiered in 2017 at the prestigious Annecy International Animated Film Festival where it won the Best Animated Feature Film and has since gone on to garner many more awards, including a nomination for the 2018 Best Animated Film Oscar.

Described by the New York Times as “a long and arduous labor of love”, Loving Vincent is a must see for fans of both animated films and art history.
