About Double portrait
The painter María Luisa Señoret paints a portrait of her filmmaker daughter, while the latter films the process and walks among the canvases hanging on the walls of her mother’s studio. These movements become a pretext for a journey back in time that unveils the many twists and turns of Señoret’s eventful life.
Directed by Marilú Mallet, Double portrait leans on a strong ensemble — María Luisa Segnoret, Marilú Mallet — 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 documentary titles of 2000.
