McCurry the Pursuit of Color

Steve McCurry is a myth in photography. He is the author of the legendary photo of the Afghan girl on the cover of National Geographic. 'McCurry. the search for color' is the first documentary feature film that analyzes the life and work of the legendary photographer from within. The documentary is made up of unpublished images that make a sensory portrait of what MCurry sees and hears. The shadow of an iconic image tends to lengthen over the decades, and to illuminate the face of its author ? with contrast and in full color ? this motivated this portrait. With unique access to his creative process and unpublished images, we discover his commitment to record what defines and unites human beings in their search for color. It is directed by Denis Delestrac, author of other documentaries such as 'Pax Americana and the military conquest of space' or 'Banking Nature'. The cast is made up of the close circle of Stece McCurry: the voices that intervene are those of Paul Theroux, Sharbat Gula, Bruce Duffy, Anthony Bannon and Robert Dannin. The documentary is produced by Intrepido Films and Polar Star Films and distributed in Spain by Karma Films. Before being released in theaters, the documentary went through festivals such as the Malaga Film Festival, Boulder International Film Festival or Doc Lands Documentary Film Festival.
