A man returns home to paint again—but madness won’t let go of the brush.
After 25 years in France, Ragıp returns to Turkey with a single dream: to reclaim his identity as an artist.
Once lured into a human trafficking ring under the false promise of an art career, he’s finally ready to leave that nightmare behind.
He opens a small atelier and starts teaching painting, hoping to reconnect with the emotions he lost.
But schizophrenia—his constant shadow—starts seeping into his work.
As reality blurs and delusions take hold, Ragıp’s creative process turns macabre.
When paint is no longer enough, he begins using the unthinkable as material.
PIGMENT is a haunting exploration of guilt, obsession, and the fine line between genius and madness.
