Synopsis

One day, word-famous artist Juan arrives in a tiny mountain village to holiday. Vivid colours, popular exhibitions, and ever-growing fame have exhausted him. He wants to go unnoticed, find some peace and quiet, and create something totally unlike the art he’s made before. Alas, the townspeople have already noticed him and by morning, a long cue of animals forms at his door with everyone clamouring for their portrait to be painted. Juan refuses to come out and after a while, the crowd disperses. Only a mommy bear continues standing patiently on the edge of the sidewalk, returning every day to wait from sunrise to sunset.
