Albert has perceived the world through colours since childhood. For him, they symbolize human moods and help him to orient himself in society and relationships. Two of his best friends are blue, his dream girl Tereza glows yellow, while his rival Patrick is red. The problem for Albert, however, is self-determination. For he mixes two colours, the analytical blue and the playful yellow. As Albert grows up, he tries out other colours: activist orange, ambitious purple and apathetic green. But he doesn't feel like himself in any of them. And he constantly encounters red, which both frightens and attracts him. Paints is an auteur film by Martin Živocký in which he explores the human desire for a more simple view of the world.
