Director Steven Soderbergh’s latest dark comedy, The Christophers, stars Ian McKellen and Michaela Coel. When Lori takes on a forgery job of one of the art world’s most forgotten legendary painters, Julian Sklar, she sees herself caught in the middle of Sklar and his two children, who are desperate for a set of unfinished paintings that they hope to profit from after his death.
Soderbergh’s British tale of forgery and true artistry brings two decorated British actors together, with spectacular performances from the pair as two artists searching for their purpose and passion.
