    • Synopsis
    • In 17th Century Amsterdam, a period of “Tulip Mania” has gripped the land. With a single tulip bulb selling for more than 10 times the average person’s wages, the exotic flower could make - and break - fortunes. Yet for wealthy merchant Cornelis Sandvoort, true happiness lay in creating some semblance of immortality through a family with his much-younger bride, Sophia. But as the two fail to conceive, Cornelis commissions a portrait of them instead, rationalizing the work of art as a different kind of legacy. Only as the painting takes form does a powerful lust develop between Sophia and the handsome artist, Jan van Loos...leading to an entertaining and ever growing series of deceits and lies. At once sensuous, suspenseful and undeniably enchanting, TULIP FEVER is a spirited examination of passion, longing and the lengths one will go for true love.
