With Tanja Fraai (director) and the artist José Maria Capricorne.

About: we show a short movie (in Dutch, with English subtitles) of the documentary that we are making about the artist Capricorne from Curaçao.

• African influences in his paintings (figures, movements, colours)
• African influences on the island of Curaçao (music)
• Curaçao as a fundamentally multicultural society
• The relationship between myself and the artist: why do I make a documentary about Capricorne? What aspects will I highlight?
• Details about the documentary: what, when, with whom?
• Welcome!
