    • Synopsis
    • A full time artist, Martin Blaszko was born in Berlin in 1920. In 1939, fleeing the war, his family moved to Paris, where he met Marc Chagall. A few months later he settled permanently in Buenos Aires, where he lived and worked until his recent dead in 2011.
      Ignacio Masllorens met him in 2008 and they became friends immediately. This film began as a result of this friendship and ended up being a comedy. Filmed in four days, it consists in twenty sequence shots that show how his last exhibition was set up. It also reveals the fascinating personality of its main character.
