The world, life and work of Jaime Fernandes, a peasant born in Barcos (Beira Baixa, Portugal), who was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia at the age of 38 and interned in a sanatorium in Lisbon, Hospital Miguel Bombarda, where he died at the age of 69. When he was 65-years-old he started to paint and during the short period of life-time until his death he made a brilliant pictorial work, influenced by the social environment and the sanatorium daily-life.

1967年,丹麦电影导演乔根·莱斯(Jørgen Leth)创作出颇具实验色彩的作品《完美的人(Det perfekte menneske)》。也许乔根本人都没料到,四十多年后,他的作品竟会以如此奇特的方式被人记起和关注。始作俑者拉斯·冯·特里尔,Dogma95的发起者,他邀请乔森按照常识(challenge on the technique)、表达手段(absence of figure)、自由发挥(challenge on personal limit)、动画(形式的多样化)、内容(deprivation of contents)等电影创作的五种基本形式重拍《完美的人》,且在重拍基础上还要进行再创造。周旋于孟买、哈瓦那、布鲁塞尔等地,一部奇特的电影人之间的互搏悄悄诞生……
本片荣获2004年Motovun电影节国际影评人费比西奖。
