War & Peace

"Guerra & Paz - Portinari" presents a series of thoughts from painter Cândido Portinari about the designs of mankind related towards the union of people during moments of war and peace (also the title of his large painting for the United Nations in the late 1950's and of which he could not visit to see it placed when news broke out he was a comunist). It's a good short documentary directed by Carla Camurati where she presents several archival images from World War II and other series of images culminating in the art created by Portinari, showing how his picture was restaured in recent years. There isn't much to be said about, it must be seen actually. 8/10.
