About

Directed by Teller (of the famed magician duo Penn & Teller), this fascinating documentary is a study of the quixotic quest of Texas-based inventor Tim Jenison to unravel the mysteries behind Dutch Master Johannes Vermeer’s photorealistic painting techniques. Travelling across the globe and involving a variety of technological experiments, Tim’s Vermeer is an insightful study of obsession and the methods behind the masterpieces.
