“Thirty-six characters from different stages of life - representations of different times - interact in one room, moving in loops, observed by a static camera. I had to draw and paint about 16.000 cell-mattes, and make several hundred thousand exposures on an optical printer. It took a full seven months, sixteen hours per day, to make the piece”[ source]:

La Cumparsita Reputedly the most famous
tango in existence,
La Cumparista isn't just elegant, exquisite and sublime, it also once raised significant copyright concerns, a debate to which
this collection doesn't add anything at all. Been
ninety years (Spanish) since the tango was written.
