About The Story of Artigas
In 1884, the famous painter Juan Manuel Blanes, from Uruguay, is asked to create a portrait of José Artigas. There is only one drawing of his face, done in his old age so Blanes must imagine what he looked like by reading up on his ideas and learning about his life.
Directed by César Charlone, The Story of Artigas leans on a strong ensemble — Yamandú Cruz, Jorge Esmoris, Franklin Rodríguez — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2011.
