Chaïm Soutine - The name is famiIiar, the artist's work Iess so. The man, born in 1893 in a shtetl in today's BeIarus, is a mysterious, shadowy figure.
For this film, filmmakers VaIérie FirIa and Murielle Levy seized the handful of cIues they had - a few books, an old fiIm, a tomb at Montparnasse cemetery - and conducted an investigation with brio.
They retrace the destiny of this fascinating painter, who was so tormented he destroyed the canvases that bespoke his anguish. This documentary is more than a well-deserved tribute to a major painter from the schooI of Paris. The filmmakers' careful inquiry and evident fascination for the man offer us a subtle approach to the work, and an encounter with a compIex person, often detestable and deeply engaging. |
