Las manos 1978

Directed by Lizardo Díaz Muñoz

This is a short documentary that, in a somewhat poetic way, shows the importance of hands in human life and in positive human activities, from childhood through old age. It begins by presenting the biblical symbolism of the Creation of Man and then moves on to a narrative of various trades in which hands are the primary tool. The documentary focuses solely on the good that people can do with their hands, while avoiding any mention of the negative or harmful aspects.
