No hope, no fear. The wise-ass young apprentice Cecco Boneri shares the brazen truth about his life as pupil to the greatest painter in 17th century Rome, Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio. The brilliant, ill-tempered artist sleeps with both sexes, defies his patrons, assaults his enemies, and practically lives in prison. When not assisting the artist, wily Cecco makes money selling his body to wealthy Romans and corrupt priests. Caravaggio sets Rome ablaze with his defiant paintings, posing Cecco as a cocky Cupid and daring the Vatican's wrath. Meanwhile, Caravaggio's enemies plot revenge against him. Street kid Cecco is too smart to let Caravaggio fall in love with him. But as years pass, the painter's life spirals brutally out of control into jealousy and murder, and Cecco discovers the searing truth about why he's bound to Caravaggio's unsettled, violent spirit. When their edifice finally crumbles, will there be anyone left to pick up the pieces?
