Content:
The film is about the unique adventure of a man creating a work of art in the Moroccan desert near Tafraout. During a period of three months, Jean Verame utilized eighteen tons of blue, violet, red and white paint to cover part of the Anti-Atlas mountains. His project, fully supported by King Hassan II, is a striking piece of art. His work and his presence are not without effects on the local ethnic group, the Berbers, whose women still go veiled in front of every man, though they are the working force of the region. Often compared to Christo, Jean Verame offers a different approach to contemporary painting: his mountains will last for at least 100 years. (Roland Collection)
