Krištof Zupet – slikar

Krištof Zupet's large oeuvre includes paintings, drawings, watercolours, and frescoes; his extraordinary portraits are true psychological studies. He has succeeded in developing a unique new aesthetic. The film combines an overview of his key works with footage of him painting a portrait of his friend Ifigenija Simonovič and recordings of excerpts from Zupet's diaries, insightful writings on the origin of his works. His life has been profoundly impacted by illness. Painting is what has helped him defy it.
