A Dream in the Abyss

A hazardous encounter leads América and Juan Pedro to recognize in each other the unsuspicious emotion of the first love. Young and innocent identified with their artistic devotion -he is a composer, she a dancer- they overstep the bound of their shared feeling, joyful and without great fears. They never imagined that their openhearted and pure love could hide a stain: that of racial prejudice.

Audiovisual biography of Maestro Carlos Cruz-Diez reveals his beginnings in the world of art, his tireless search for pure invention, the euphoric discovery of color in space and the development of an artistic platform, based on light and in an active viewer. But it not only shows the nature of his work, but also that human and familiar aspect that characterizes him so much.

This documentary is a tribute to the founder of Bolívar Films on the occasion of the 61st anniversary of this production company, which presents, through valuable testimonies and unpublished images, the life and work of Luis Guillermo Villegas Blanco and his legacy in the Venezuelan film industry.
