Synopsis: “The most modern photographer of the world” said Andy Warhol about Christopher Makos, one of the most genuine representatives of the American Pop, resistant of the eighties style-life and a current component of The Hilton Brothers, a photographic command installed in a form of post-pop. This documentary travel through Makos's itinerary, a creating and provoking machine from a personal style that never provokes so many admiration as contempt, but never indifference. “It’s like Frankenstein; some people consider it’s a monster, other we consider like an art project”. Makos dixit.
The director Alba de Lara was licensed in Communication Audiovisual and titled with the Postdegree in Cinematographic Direction by the University San Pablo Ceu of Madrid.
