Miró: Theatre of Dreams

Overview

A biographical documentary on Spanish painter and sculptor Joan Miro (1893-1983), renowned for his part in the 1920s surrealist movement in Paris in his exploration of the inner world of dreams and the unconscious in a range of works. The documentary traces his involvement at the age of 85 in putting together a strongly political theatrical piece with young actors under the banner of Claca theatre, a theatre ideally aimed to translate to performance anywhere and as a surreal vision of traditional Catalonian folk culture.
