The af Klint family inherited and preserved the work of 1,300 paintings and 26,000 pages of notes that Hilma af Klint left behind. A sacred work that Hilma dedicated her life to receiving from higher spiritual beings. In 1972, Hilma's nephew formed the "Foundation Hilma af Klints work" to create a legal network around the work. When Hilma becomes internationally known and recognized, actors with strong capital become aware of the financial potential that resides in her work, and the foundation is infiltrated. This film is about how a spiritual message has become a capitalistic asset, benefitting private companies, and how the af Klint family struggles to protect their legacy.
