Vom Glanz in den Augen der Bilder

Die im DV PAL Format gedrehte Dokumentation gibt bunte, atmosphärische Einblicke in das künstlerische Schaffen und den sozialen Austausch der nunmehr seit 30 Jahren bestehenden Kunstschule ATELIERPROJEKT in München. Die Aufnahmen stammen aus den Jahren 2013 und 2018 und wurden an den Tagen der offenen Tür und in den Malkursen gemacht. Der Live-Kommentar ist von Thomas Zacharias, Künstler und ehemaliger Akademieprofessor, dessen engagierte Rede zum 20 Jahre Jubiläum die Stichworte liefert, die als Zwischentitel den Film unterhaltsam strukturieren.
