Il cartapestaio

In the presence of the director

The director documents the work of Cavalier Pietro Indino, an artisan from Puglia. The laborious creative process of a paper mache master is transfigured into a metaphor for God’s creation of man, thanks to the ecstatic work of the camera and Schoenberg’s music.
