Las Delicias del Jardín (The Delights of the Garden), the new film by Fernando Colomo, is a lighthearted and self-ironic comedy that blurs the boundaries between fiction and reality. Shot almost entirely in the studio of painter Javier de Juan, the space and his works take on a decisive presence, to the point of becoming another protagonist in the story. Each frame engages in dialogue with the artist’s visual universe, infusing the film with a unique atmosphere deeply rooted in his creations.
In addition, Javier de Juan himself makes a cameo appearance, further reinforcing this interplay between art, life, and cinema. Beyond the screen, he also designed the film’s official poster, extending his artistic imprint to the very image that represents the project.
Thus, The Delights of the Garden not only celebrates the talent of Fernando Colomo and his son Pablo, but also pays tribute to the vision and visual world of Javier de Juan, whose presence resonates throughout this charming and vital film.
