Centered around the opening of the Musee Picasso in Paris, this film takes the opportunity to examine the collection created by Picasso, the work he felt to be his personal legacy to the world. The powerful spirit of the artist is echoed in the dramatic theater of Corrida, the ring of the bullfight, and in the images of regional Spain - Gosol, Malaga, Barcelona.

Distributor Notes: The genius of Picasso is universally acknowledged. His works are uniquely identifiable, yet no painter has developed so many styles of painting. At each stage his work seems to find stylistic resolution, but then comes a revolutionary change that leads to new and surprising directions. Picasso has dominated Modern Art--his works are a constant revelation and more than any other testimony, they illuminate the paradoxes of this elusive man. Acclaimed art film director Didier Baussy-Oulianoff has given us a unique and personal look at the man and his art.
