Óscar. Una pasión surrealista
The touching portrayal of a cursed painter.
Watch the Trailer!
"Óscar. The Color of Destiny" is a revealing portrayal of a forgotten icon of French
Surrealism: Spanish painter Óscar Domínguez, contemporary of Picasso. The film
rediscovers the life of a talented artist who was ignored after he committed suicide,
fifty years ago, victim of a serious illness which had disfigured his body: the
Elephant Man's disease. The film is stirring and touching and compels admiration
for the bohemian painter whose fate was self-destruction, after a wild crazy life.
Lucas Fernández turns the life of a debauchee, who regarded himself a monster
because of his disfiguring disease, into a universal story where art is the
product of love and loneliness, of sex and violence before, during and after
the Nazi invasion of Paris.
