When David Bromley discovered that art appeased the voices in his head, he dedicated himself to bringing beauty to life. With intimate access to David's life and relationships, we witness the precariousness of David’s world; while interviews with friends, critics and musicians speak to mental health, the creative process, and the commercialization of art.
