Short piece for the TV series Aujourd'hui en France [Today in France]. Reporting on a Joan Miró exhibition at the Maeght Foundation, Sarah Maldoror enjoys filming the Spanish painter and sculptor engaging with children during a theatre piece. The filmmaker's central themes are in full bloom here: the theatre, the interrelationship between the arts and the transformation of the childhood experience through art. The ensemble is like a work by Joan Miró translated into real life.
