At the height of the Belle Époque, Gabriële Buffet--a brilliant young musician fresh out of Europe's most elite conservatory--meets Francis Picabia, a charismatic and explosive Spanish painter. Their intense love affair plunges them into a Paris alive with artistic experimentation and social rebellion. Soon after, Gabriële meets Marcel Duchamp--younger than Picabia and Gabriële, brilliant, and enigmatic--and before long the three have embarked on a passionate and unconventional relationship that will define their personal stories--and in the process reshape modern art. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs Europe moves from exuberance to upheaval, and World War I looms, Gabriële, Francis Picabia, and Marcel Duchamp and their milieu challenge every convention: about marriage, sexuality, authorship, and artistic freedom.
