Filmed over three years with unprecedented access, A Bigger Picture captures Britain’s most beloved painter at work. David Hockney’s return from California to paint the East Yorkshire landscape of his childhood – outside, in all weathers, through the seasons – culminates in the largest picture ever made outdoors. It’s an inspiring story of a painter in creative dialogue with nature and photography, and a revealing portrait of Britain’s most popular and celebrated artist.

“This wonderful film … will be of lasting importance for future generations who want to understand Hockney’s art.” Saturday Review, BBC Radio 4

“Bruno Wollheim’s portrait of this forthright magus is an unqualified, life-enhancing joy from start to finish.” – The Sunday Times

“This film may well be the best anyone will ever make about Hockney’s process.” – The Times, London.

“As gently hypnotic and fulfilling as one of Hockney’s own works.” – Time Out

“This impressive documentary is almost cinematic in its scope… both majestic and intimate” – The Observer
