What is this thing called art? Does it have value or only a price? Is it interior decoration or the conduit through which the values and meaning of society are communicated? These questions face Choosy McBride, a gallery manager, and her partner Dmitri, a painter, when they visit remote Northern Queensland to find a mysterious, anonymous artist whose work possesses a power neither has seen before. Choosy is intent on representing him in her gallery and Dmitri, who is in the throes of artist's block, is simply looking for a reason to make art at all. Art, philosophy, God, and love are put through the ringer, and Choosy and Dmitri are about to discover that silence speaks loudest.
