Inspired by war, political oppression and the fight for Free Speech, Golub and his paintings are famous for their depictions of extreme violence. Also featured prominently in the film is his wife, anti-war feminist and artist, Nancy Spero. The documentary tracks Golub from starting with a blank canvas to a touring North American exhibition and eventually to an exhibition in Northern Ireland. In 2001, the filmmakers revisited Leon Golub in his final years, and in 2004 released the documentary, Golub: Late Works Are The Catastrophes. With his previous work being more relevant than ever in the aftermath of September 11, Golub's later paintings have become less graphic and violent. Produced by Kartemquin Films and directed by Jerry Blumenthal and Gordon Quinn, Golub( 1988) was the winner of the Silver Hugo Award at the 1988 Chicago International Film Festival. At one point, Golub admits," my work these days is sort of political, sort of metaphysical, and sort of smart- ass. I'm playful and hostile."

The film went on to be an Official Selection at multiple international film festivals including the Cinematica of Portugal and the Sydney International Film Festival.
