The nightclub's regulars each stop by: singer Jane Avril teases Henri charmingly, dancers La Goulue and Aicha fight, and owner Maurice Joyant offers Henri free drinks for a month in exchange for painting a promotional poster. At closing time, Henri waits for the crowds to disperse before standing to reveal his four-foot six-inch body. As he walks to his Montmartre apartment, he recalls the events that led to his disfigurement. It is learned Lautrec falls down a flight of stairs, where his legs fail to heal due to a genetic weakness resulting from his parents being first cousins. His legs stunted and pained, Henri loses himself in his art, while his father leaves his mother, the countess, to ensure they have no more children. Henri is a bright, happy child, revered by his father, the Count de Toulouse-Lautrec. As a young adult he proposes to the woman he loves, but when she tells him no woman will ever love him, he leaves his childhood home in despair to begin a new life as a painter in Paris.

Ce film va à la rencontre d'œuvres réalisées clandestinement à l'intérieur des camps nazis ; des dessins, des lavis, des peintures aujourd'hui conservés dans les musées en Allemagne, en Pologne, en Israël, notamment. Le réalisateur dialogue avec quatre artistes déportés encore vivants : Yehuda Bacon, José Fosty, Walter Spitzer, Samuel Willenberg, qui évoquent les circonstances dans lesquelles ces œuvres ont été produites, et les souvenirs qui s'y attachent. Ces œuvres souvent anonymes représentent principalement la vie quotidienne dans les camps : l'appel, le travail forcé, les baraques, la soupe, les exécutions, le ramassage des morts... Entre méditation sur les lieux d'anciens camps, comme Auschwitz ou Treblinka, et visites de réserves de musées, en Allemagne, en Pologne, en Israël, ce film interroge sur la notion de beauté et sur ce que signifie l'honneur d'être un artiste à travers le geste fragile du dessin au cœur de cette tragédie humaine que furent les camps de concentration et d'extermination.
