__________
Long, long ago, a boy lies confined by sickness to his windowless bedchambers. He can never breathe fresh air or feel the warmth of the sun on his skin, so his doting father summons a painter to embellish his rooms with beautiful murals.
Soon there is a fabulous world on the walls, a colourful, shifting landscape peopled by shepherds and lovers, criss-crossed by armies and pirate ships. Can the artist show this child the richness and beauty of life with nothing but paints and brushes?
