El accidente feliz(2020)

Antonio Martorell and his friends, a dance that never ends...

El accidente feliz is a documentary that traces the life and work of Antonio Martorell, a prolific Puerto Rican plastic artist whose practice spans multiple disciplines. Director Paloma Suau crafts an intimate portrait that becomes a dance between filmmaker and subject, each reflecting the other through the camera. Rather than a traditional documentary, the film functions as an experiment in creative reconnection—Suau's attempt to rediscover her own artistic voice while documenting Martorell's. The result is a layered exploration of artistic process, identity, and the act of creation itself.
