set

On stage, everything that is lived needs to use the strength and the capacity for expression of the entire body, and on set, very often, it must remain only in the eyes.
What movie has impacted you the most lately?
The Hunter's Order,
by Joaquim Jordà.
Wonderful modern portrait (this is what it is) about a person and what surrounds them;

It is not the typical documentary of a polyhedral and complex figure that serves to explain a time, an idea of the artist, etc.
It is the documentary that seems to be the first of its kind and seems to have inspired many of the following that focus on that, a person and the circumstances that surround him.
