Barroco
A cinematographic voyage into the secret heart of, a quest for the cultural identity of a whole continent - South America and Baroque. The focus lies not on the heritage of regional culture by the Aztecs, Mayas and Incas, but on the first historic encounter of Indian natives, European invaders and African slaves. A cultural merge in the light of a single phenomenon: Baroque, this philosophic and religious vision of a unity of body and world, soul and mind, spirit and sense, which has conquerred in the 17th century the entire latin-american continent - still shaping culture and every-day life from Mexico to Brazil.
