Three summers ago, Buffalo, New York native Addison Henderson went to Ghana with one question: what is identity? He brought with a film crew, his father and three friends to approach topics of identity, belonging and heritage in the West African nation where centuries before the Transatlantic Slave Trade had thrived. Their journey is inspiration for “The Experience”.

A drama-documentary presented by Alan Yentob, with Benedict Cumberbatch in the lead role. Every word spoken by the actors in this film is sourced from the letters that Van Gogh sent to his younger brother Theo, and of those around him. What emerges is a complex portrait of a sophisticated, civilised and yet tormented man.
