Company promotes well-being through art and culture

SophiArte--combining two words meaning wisdom and art--is a production company that comprises writers, teachers, dancers, scientists, musicians and film directors, all working from the observation that art and thought have always been vehicles for the development of humanity. SophiArte's first film, To You, Being of the Future: Part L Leonardo da Vinci, Universal Genius, is about teenaged Michael, whose life is transformed by a book written by a French poet, Alphonse de Lamartine.

He travels to France, where he discovers a manuscript in which Lamartine recounts the life of Leonardo da Vinci, which inspires him to go to Italy to discover this genius of the Renaissance. Michael awakens to the world as he travels to the places where Leonardo lived and is exposed to da Vinci's paintings, drawings, inventions and reflections.
