In a world where art has become a commodity, one artist goes back to the source.
Exhausted by the superficiality of the contemporary art market, Guillaume Charbonneau, aka ONNO, leaves everything behind. Destination: Ethiopia, the cradle of humanity. Armed with brushes and watercolors, he immerses himself in the heart of the tribes of the Omo Valley.
What he discovers goes beyond art: children who paint with a freedom that adults have forgotten, elders whose every face is a work of art, a raw and whole humanity. The film follows this intimate transformation, that of an artist learning to see.
The Colors of Humanity is a poetic documentary about creation, identity, and what unites us all, beyond borders.
Directed by Guillaume Charbonneau (Canada)
