A meditative portrait of artistic obsession and friendship set in 1960s Paris, where a simple sitting becomes an exploration of perfectionism, time, and human connection.

Paris, 1964. The Swiss sculptor and painter Alberto Giacometti, one of the most accomplished and respected artists of his generation, asks his friend, the American writer James Lord, to sit for a portrait, assuring him that it will take no longer than two or three hours, an afternoon at the most.
