Don Millar’s 2018 documentary Botero takes a feature-length look at the Italy’s Fernando Botero, who at the age of 88 is one of the world’s most popular living artists.

Weaving together original footage shot in 10 cities across China, Europe, New York and Colombia, with decades of family photos and archival video, Botero offers viewers access to the artist and his family, along with a colorful cast of historians, curators and academics who together reveal the creativity and convictions at the heart of the artist.

Highlights include a sequence wherein Botero’s children uncover 50 year-old sketches in a shuttered storage facility, cameras going behind the scenes at a show exhibiting his work alongside Pablo Picasso’s, and the artist himself taking viewers on a private tour of his studio.
