Synopsis:

Filmmaker, Julian Cole first met Gilbert & George when he modelled for them in 1986. He decided that now they had photographed him he wanted to film them. His moving portrait filmed over 17 years, traces their lives from humble beginnings to their role on the world's artistic stage where they have performed an enduring and controversial double act for over four decades.

Banned by the authorities and panned by the critics. They are loved and hated with unprecedented ferocity. This film probes the myths and reveals the individuals that are two people inside a single artist, a permanent living sculpture in which they are compelled to be inseparable from each other and their art. This intimate film biography helps open doors to the understanding of their unique visual language, their 'humanistic art' and what they believe the real legacy of the art of our times should be.

Tribute to the artists Gilbert and George, filmed over seventeen years looking at how their work has developed and some of their exhibitions around the world. The artists talk about themselves and their work, and also includes interviews with former models and art specialists.

Traces the lives of award-winning artists Gilbert Prousch and George Passmore from their humble beginnings to the world's artistic stage.
