Synopsis

This is the portrait of one of the most outstanding Mexican artists in the world of contemporary art; a reflection about the identity of a person immersed in a world that worships technology and falls into a voracious consumerism. In this panorama, famed artist Gabriel Orozco expounds a modest invitation to contemplate a reality that we do not perceive very often.

Amazing film, the very difficult task of capturing the creative process on film transcends and leaks into the process of making the film itself. Beautiful, simple, poetic.
