Three generations of photographers talk about the Minute photography, travelling photographers, represented by Minute Man José Rivero. They also reflect on how popular photography becomes the memory of a time.
The film examines the old tradition of the journeyman photographer in Spain, called the "Minute Man" due to the development time. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, these men traveled from village to village taking family portraits. Only a few of these "Minute Men" still survive. This documentary examines their technique and captures their reflections on this vanishing profession.—Anonymous
