Synopsis
American Homeboy
Pachuco and Cholo culture sprouted from American soil in response to social alienation, wartime sentiment, and discriminatory government policies, only to revolutionize pop culture.
On the Impossibility of an Homage
Given a portrait, who is responsible for the image we see, the painter or the subject? Ion used to be a a rockstar of Ballet in Communist Romania. When we first discussed the possibility of a portrait, Ion was initially thrilled. He’d been dreaming that someday there’d be a film about him. But during the filmmaking process Ion finds it hard to let go.
