Living Gauguin (2016)
Directed by Juan Galceran
Overview
Diego is an artist—and that’s all he feels he has in this life. He hates his job and people seem to treat him badly. Desperate and dejected—Diego feels he isn’t “Truly living” and must somehow make a move to regain meaning to his life. Reading about the great painter Paul Gauguin, Diego emulates the artist and leaves the comfort of his world for a place he can live cheaply and paint full time. His destination—Juarez Mexico. But dreams can come at a price and Diego is forced to come to terms with what “truly living” means when one has to survive and escape with one’s own life.
