Ricardo and Painting is the portrait that Barbet Schroeder ( General Idi Amin Dada, self-portrait , The Terror's Advocate ) offers us of his friend Ricardo Cavallo, who devotes his life to painting. From Buenos Aires to Finistère, via Paris and Peru, this film is an invitation to delve into the history of painting, but also to discover the life of this exceptional man who, with simplicity and humility, has always committed himself entirely, to the point of transmitting his passion to the children of his village.
