John Bellany: Bellany - A Life, Death And Resurrection

This documentary film explores the events in the life of Scottish artist, John Bellany, and the way in which they have influenced his art; from depictions of the fishing community of Port Seton in which he was raised; the dark days as he struggled with deeply internal questions; family tragedy and near death; to his joy at being granted a second chance at life.

Personal experience has informed and illuminated his work in an astonishingly honest way, and has inspired paintings that range from the dark and brooding to expressions of pure joy.
