Sinopse
An encounter with the life and work of Fernando Lemos, the pt photographer, painter, graphic designer, and poet who for the last 50 years has made BR his home after fleeing the Salazar dictatorship back home. An exploration into his personal history and politics, his influences and his artistic vision. Taking as its starting point the surrealist premise of automation in the creative process, a small crew set out to film during six days the day-to-day life of Fernando in his atelier and home in São Paulo. In a fulminating shoot, a true meeting of two generations, the film captures the artist’s constant inquietude, his independent way of thinking, and how he communicates this to the world.
