Hand Gestures + Introduction

A documentary about a bronze foundry in Milan that still uses techniques dating back to the 4th-century BC. Eschewing voiceover narration in favour of natural sound effects, the film ventures inside the historic Battaglia Artistic Foundry where Italian artist Velasco Vitali is about to make one of his famous dog sculptures in glazed bronze with the help of the resident craftsmen. Cameras capture each stage of the meticulous process inside the 100-year-old building.
