Already in his childhood, Pablo Picasso shows talent for painting and is sent to the Academy of Arts in Madrid. He becomes a painter but has to live in Paris in poverty. One day he is discovered by an American millionaire and starts to earn money, but he wastes his talent by painting plates. He meets famous people of the 1920s: Gertrude Stein, Alice B. Toklas, Appolinaire, Hitler, and Churchill.—Mattias Thuresson
