Synopsis: The true story revolves around the short lives of Theresa Duncan and Jeremy Blake, who shared a radiant, obsessive love, an uncommon bond formed in no small part by their almost religious belief in the concept of bohemia. Duncan made a name for herself as one of the first designers of video games for girls, and Blake was an artist whose “digital paintings”—kaleidoscopic abstractions shown on plasma screens—had made him a rising art star. Together, they were a magnetic social force, who fast became the toast of the downtown New York scene. But out of nowhere, they developed a consuming belief that complex forces involving the government and various religious organizations were conspiring against them, which began a strange, downward spiral into a world of paranoia that resulted in Duncan taking her own life on July 10, 2007. In a Romeo and Juliet-esque twist of fate, it was Blake who first discovered her body on the floor of their bedroom, and it was Blake who, a week later, ended his own life by walking into the Atlantic Ocean.
