Reverón

The film is about the painter Armando Reveron. Reveron was a Venezuelan artist. The account covers the years between 1924 and 1954. Where he lived was on the Caribbean shore. It was a place he built with his own hands. He called it the Castillete. Juanita was with him. She was both his model and his companion in life. Friends came and went from the house. Reveron made the objects around him himself. Tropical light was his real subject. He painted where the light blinds the eye. As the years pass his health breaks down. The account is built as a love story spread over thirty years. Luigi Sciamanna and Sheila Monterola take the leads, with Luis Fernandez and Antonio Delli also in the cast, in Diego Risquez’s Venezuelan film of 2011.
