Ex-Voto
A Film by Caroline D'hondt
- Producer -
Synopsis
Alfredo Vilchis, one of the latest Mexican ex-voto painter: There are ex-votos of faith. The ones when people come with tears in their eyes, of joy or pain. And they ask you to express something they tell you.
The artistic ex-voto is when people don't ask you, but when you walk in the streets and you see an accident, or when you see or read a newspaper. You see that and you say : it touches me, and this miracle inspires me to express it and make an ex-voto of feeling, inspiration. That has the same purpose.
