Saint-Paul Mental Asylum, France, June 1889 Newly admitted patient Vincent Van Gogh watched as the first stars of what would become The Starry Night blinked to life over the sleepy Village of Saint-Rémy.
It will take all of them to find the lost lamps, and a lost love..
Along the way, the lamplighter finds help from a Curious cast of characters including the man on the moon, an ages-old cypress tree, and the wind itself.
The lamplighter finds himself swept away on a wonderfully strange adventure to find and light the lost lamps, one that will take him from the depths of wish-filled rivers to the heights of the star-filled sky.
Green hour would transform the night from familiar to fantastical, with the Village street lamps mysteriously vanishing.
The lamplighter began his last night of work at the Village tavern during \'green hour\' - an absinthe-drenched celebration in his honor.
The town was scheduled to be wired with a new and innovative technology called \'electricity\' the following day.
That notorious starry night would be his last one on the job.
In that Village lived a lamplighter.
