Off-topic Post: The 100 Years Show (2015)

Posted on by

The 100 Years Show (2015) is a charming, sweet, and inspiring documentary short about Cuban-American artist Carmen Herrera. Her work is extraordinary.

Just as intriguing?

Her life story and glacial climb to prominence in the art world. (She turned 99 during filming of the documentary.) Oh, and a work ethic that puts us all to shame.

The 100 Years Show (2015):

  • Directed by: Alison Klayman
  • Starring: Carmen Herrera
  • Runtime: 30 minutes
  • Release Date: January 2017

The film is currently streaming on Netflix (USA).

    • She’s still alive, and heading towards 102!

      I’ve found her fascinating ever since I first read about her last year, but I had no idea this documentary existed until Tuesday. I’m really glad I watched it.
