Pablo Picasso is one of the greatest artists of all time. But how did he become one?

For a long time, the role of the early years in his success was overlooked: the education, the learning that led to extraordinary achievements. Three cities played a key role in his youth: Malaga, Barcelona and Paris. The filmmakers visited all three and examined their impact on Picasso.

Our documentary film analyses two key periods: the so-called Blue and Pink period, the period up to 1907, when he often portrayed himself as Harlequin, for example. Then, in 1907, came the painting Mademoiselles de Avignon, which marked a turning point not only in his own art but in the art in general, and Picasso was only 25 years old! The film was made in collaboration with the Picasso museums in Malaga, Barcelona, Paris and the MOMA in New York.
