poster for the short film, pasta negra
_how
tim sutton introduced us to director jorge thielen armand. jorge had just finished work on a new short film set in venezuela and was looking for someone to make titles and a poster for it. we watched the film and leapt at the chance, for a thing of great beauty it is.

the film is called pasta negra. it tells the story of a family—a grandmother, a mother with child and her sister—trying to cross the border into colombia. the photography in the film is such a thing to behold, that only upon a second viewing were we able to pay attention to the story.

we presented a range of ideas to jorge, and ended up making two posters for the film. the first poster you can see here, which caspar made in the berlin studio with a wig, masking tape, a printer, paper, a knife and a camera.

the film was accepted into the sundance film festival whilst we were working on the poster. if you have the means we can't recommend seeing this film enough.
