Description NEW YORK, 1958

Tortured genius, MARK ROTHKO, is considered one of the greatest painters of the 20th century.

In 1958, he is paid a phenomenal sum of money to paint a set of murals for New York's ritzy new Seagram Building.

For 2 years, he struggles to create these masterpieces.

A series of explosive confrontations with his idealistic young assistant forces Rothko to re-evaluate his motives in accepting the commission.
