The life of Mexican muralist José Clemente Orozco (1883-1949), a life filled with drama, adversity and triumph, is one of the great stories of the modern era. Despite poverty, childhood rheumatic fever that damaged his heart and an explosion in his youth that cost him his left hand, Orozco persisted in his wish to become an artist.
Featuring a post-screening conversation and Q&A with Philadelphia artists Zafka Christensen and Cesar Viveros.
Part of Latin Rhythm & Reels Miniseries in partnership with WHYY
