Sargy Mann

Synopsis

Sargy Mann has been a successful figurative painter for over twenty years despite being registered blind. In May 2005 he went to Cadaques, Spain, to find subjects for new pictures. Then the day after getting back he went completely blind. This film shows how he has continued to paint, and maybe make some of his best ever work.
