Synopsis:
The series of fifteen prints Francisco Toledo made on account of Franz Kafka's "Report For an Academy" is the narrative line of this documentary film that looks for the face of the juchiteco artist. The ink with which Kafka writes the story of "Pedro the Red" draw zigzagging outlines, indefinitely searching. As the protagonist of Kafka's story, the same "Peter the Red" in these self portrait-prints of Toledo measures a journey that takes us from Paris of the 60s to the recent teacher's conflict in Oaxaca (2006). Thus, "The Toledo Report" interweaves a plot where the passion and mastery of the artist and the brilliant printer, inseparable from the chisel with which a man takes part in historical and social matters, his strong intervention against big interests of transnationals and his memorial fights of rescue and preservation of indigenous languages, the myths and legends of our ancestors.
