If you were moved by the haunting beauty of Loving Vincent, you’ll find a kindred spirit in four distinct yet thematically linked titles: Maria, Lost Illusions, Frida, and Portrait of a Lady on Fire. Each film offers a fresh lens on the artist’s struggle—whether it’s the operatic twilight of Maria Callas, the poet’s bitter initiation into Parisian culture, Frida Kahlo’s vivid self‑portrait of pain, or the quiet, fire‑kissed intimacy of a painter’s secret commission. Together they form a curated palette that balances new releases, audience favorites, timeless classics, and the most resonant semantic match.
From the recent, richly textured portrait of an opera legend in Maria, to the critically acclaimed exploration of artistic compromise in Lost Illusions, the collection spans eras and mediums while staying anchored in the same emotional currents that drive Van Gogh’s story.

Finally, Portrait of a Lady on Fire caps the set with a lyrical, audience‑loved meditation on love and art, delivering the perfect visual echo to Loving Vincent’s painted narrative.
