Leonardo(2021)

Leonardo is a documentary series that reexamines the Renaissance master through a provocative lens, arguing he was a gay outsider who channeled his inner turmoil into his art. Rather than celebrating his genius in broad strokes, each episode dissects a single masterwork—from the Mona Lisa to The Last Supper—hunting for coded messages and psychological clues buried beneath the paint. The series positions da Vinci as a conflicted figure, a perfectionist tormented by secrecy, using his notebooks and paintings as a form of self-expression he couldn't voice openly. It's a psychological portrait wrapped in art history, one that challenges conventional readings of his legacy and asks what we might have missed in his most famous works.
