The Man Who Saw Too Much

Directed by Trisha Ziff

Synopsis

Biographic documentary about the life of photographer Enrique Metinides Tsironides. Born in México, he begun his photographic career when as a 10-year-old child his father gave him a camera. The violence in the streets of Mexico shocked him in a way that he decided to portray everything, obsessed with police incidents, traffic accidents, and all kinds of disasters. With this documentary not only we discover an afflicted City of Mexico, but also the obsession of a man with capturing the fate of the others though the lens of his camera, until managing to achieve his own style: exposing the emotions of desperate situations through the human tragedies, not as a praise to violence, but as an exaltation of art.
