/ netflix - Zábava
This documentary is an art by itself. Huge respect!
"You're looking for a moment when you feel as close to the soul as possible." That says it all, no matter what you paint, photograph, draw, sculpt, write, or even how you breathe.
Platon is an overrated photographer
@@billbuffett2092 can you elaborate?
@@billbuffett2092 why overrated ??
That’s is perfection!
This documentary takes the fraction of a second and converts it to a lifetime of thought.
Lived it, loved it.
Anyone else here bc their teacher makes them watch it
Me

Me lol
Shout out to bcc🙂👍
Me 🤣😇 and that's
I have NEVER commented before on any CZcams video i have seen. But NOW is the time. To say that I am deeply touched by this amazing documentary. Thank you so much for this piece of art & inspiration. Thank you Platon to allow us to see aver your shoulder and into your heart.
PLATON has to be one of the most unpretentious , intelligent, quiet & yet brilliant portrait specialists of this last 30 years & to boot he’s an outstanding human being. He’s a purist with a passion for telling the story behind the lens.
He is amazing both as a person and as an artist. Few people are that transparent, clear, and direct.
Also, the people that worked on this documentary did a majestic job! I really appreciated the way they balanced out the emotionally dark part of the women's stories in Congo by introducing right after that the warm atmosphere of Platon talking about his family.
He talks, to make others not make a pose and so they become free, uneasy and feel thier fear. This creates a real soul to come out.....
This artist (platon) talent to communicate in all sorts of way verbally, emotionally and thru his artistry is wonderful
You will really feel the connection
This is very inspiring, to actually use artistry sharing a simple but huge contribution to society.
"The hero is the person that inspires us to think again about our own moral compass and our own responsibility as global citizens." ~ Platon
Lovely words.. respect ❤ Platon
kind of oxi moronic, as to think against one's moral compass usually entails abandoning responsibility
Never have I ever felt so relatable to something I have watched
All my respect to the whole team who made this. thank you very much
Ive always admired Platon's work, now thanks to Netflix I admire Platon as a whole.
I felt so emotional and spiritually i'm drawn into every single word he said
I felt the same
One of the best documentaries I have seen. This has so much emotion to it. Loved Platon's approach to his art.
honestly, this was my favoraite episode from abstract and has stayed that way even through season 2. This introduced me to Platons work but also the person, and that is the most important thing to get out of this, are his thoughts and perspectives.
Whatever our art, we can all learn something from this documentary. Absolutely fantastic.
His sublime sensitivity to his subjects at the most intimate of moments is an inspiration, not just for its art but for its sheer humanity.
It reminds me of the work of the late David Bohm, a Nobel prize-winning quantum physicist who is equally as well known for his philosoophy and deep inquiries into the nature of consciousness, explored through a simple term he called "dialogue." When he explained his concept of dialogue, the simplest summation I've heard, is that to enter into a deep dialogue with another human being you have to show "attention and care." The purpose of dialogue was to get past the baggage that we all bring to conversation and relationships, that comes from our personal history. Bohm wanted to connect with the human being, not that baggage. And his notion of "care" was the essence of how he went about it: he connected with his care for another human being.
Platon's work embodies Bohm's notion of dialogue exquisitely.
I’m posting
This piece and his story reminded me of what art means to - connection with other humans. Brought a few tears to my eyes for that innocence of stripped ego and bravado. Just connection. Beautiful.
Just Incredible
Love from Afghanistan. I love design and photography, and I wish you could come here to capture these flowing moments and people in Afghanistan. Here is an undiscovered land for photographers like you. Souls are so uncovered here and one needs to have only some tools and artistic eyes for detecting them.
Thank you Netflix for this gem
This guy is so inspiring. Thank you for sharing it with us Netflix!
this series is amazing, Platon is amazing. I'm just starting my studies in design and my eyes have been opened to a whole other world.
Truly meaningful work. You photograph something that is hidden,unphotographable, abstract,inside you. invisible, your soul residing within you at that moment, it points to a past. Empathy is the key.
This is one of the best documentaries I have ever seen. OMG what tremendous talent. Platon you truly inspire me. Keep up the great work.
En la frase "estás buscando un momento en el que te sientas más cerca del alma" es donde supe que no solo es artista por su arte, sino también por su humanidad.
Este episodio fue muy inspirador porque platón nos muestra a través de su fotografía cada historia que vale la pena reflejar, él cuenta que la comunicación y la conexión es la base para transmitir algo porque antes de eso nunca conoceremos el mensaje y el se siente responsable por contar una historia y hacerlo bien, y las mostró en su viaje a África, porque lo que se vió fue muy explotador e impotente al ver a esas mujeres del Congo dentro de un sistema manchado, donde pasan su vida siendo víctimas de su propio país y pensar que poco a poco se está tornando en un círculo sin fin, sin leyes, sin derechos para esas mujeres y sus futuras hijas, me deja quebrantada.
Pero a la vez me siento grata por este tipo de documentales que son una plataforma para darnos cuenta muestras problemáticas sociales.
Platon is an orator who takes pictures. His stories always supersede the photograph. His commutation skills are why he has survived in an industry surrounded by better photographers, but who couldn’t compete with his oratorical skills.
This is beautiful. Instead of the photographer taking/wanting something from the person/object, he does the opposites and give something back.
His work is absolutely amazing wow, great episode. The Doctor's picture is beautiful
''Everything is the same and it allows the message to change'' still wrapping my head around that.
I always said i had an eye for photography .watching this makes me want to dive deeper into that world of photos and capturing the human emotions.
This guy is intense and so purposeful in what he does. Such an amazing artist.
A fine documentary on a great photographer. Watched this 3 times on Netflix, now here too!!
An absolutely epic documentary about your life and photography the ups an downs.. and getting all together
just soul breaking, truthful art of live. Love it!
I love how he approach before taking photos.
I am blown away..the photos gave me goosebumps. Amazing to say the least.
"We're warming up; it just keeps getting better". Can relate.
This is beautiful documentary.
Realmente de arrepiar. Equipe unida, Fotógrafo incrível...lindo demais!
People today are afraid of grain however this "grain" is what give a photograph its dimension, shape and emotion
I just came home at midnight after a 12 hours shift in a restaurant in central London. As I was preparing myself for a shower, I spend 43 minutes stand up in the bathroom half naked watching this documentary,( and 5 more minutes to write this comment ).
I just discovered Platon and his work. Absolutely worth it.
P.c I'm a photographer.
Penso sia uno dei più bei documentari sulla fotografia che abbia mai visto. Apprezzabile anche da chi non ha la passione. Folle, umano, toccante. Nitido, sincero, pulito e puro.
With this video Platón went up hugely in my opinion. I only knew his wide angle celebrity stuff but his earlier work shows a real talent!
Esse episódio me impactou de diversas formas! Quanto amor, dedicação e talento nesse universo fotográfico.
It’s 2:52am in Texas….This is was so moving in the beauty of Planton’s relationship with Empathy….so genuine. The seed that was placed by his Father/Mother….
Me ha llenado el espíritu, la conciencia artística y me ha regalado la convicción de seguir con más fuerza en mi camino. Inspirador.
Another amazing episode. Thank you so much for this. So inspiring!
wonderful documentary! thanks for sharing this!
One of the most beautiful documentaries I’ve ever seen!
The unique emotion in each picture of him is awesome!
This just completely changed my perspectives on photography
Loved season one of this series. Cancelled my Netflix account, but I'm happy to see this series on YT.
If Netflix had produced more content like this, I wouldn't have cancelled my account.
@@joseph-the-seventh There's a second season in Netflix now
Incrível este documentário... impossível não se emocionar.
Thats my favorite episode so far. This picture of Mom in the lapide sons is pure sadness, i am devastated...
Very insightful and well-produced. His keep-it-simple analog workflow from film & simplistic lighting, all the way to the Vintage NASA film scanner, are amazing.
wow..thanks or the inpiration..been a designer for 20 years now and I eel motivated again..thanks much netflix and platon or sharing your priceless gift
So much soul on his work. More than just a photograph.
And he also likes to touch his models 👋
42:00 "You're looking for a moment when you feel as close to the soul as possible".
I LOVED THIS DOCUMENTARY AS A PHOTOGRAPHER AND HUMAN BEING!!!!
The house and purpose of my life and knowledge will change forever.
Without a doubt this episode had one of the best portfolio intros you can see!!!!.. this episode changed so mych for me as a photographer!!
He is a pervert
@@billbuffett2092 who?
Platon
@@billbuffett2092 ohhhkkay..look here's the thing I don't know a thing about his personal life..it's also a fact that I have never seen images like his from others..all I want to take from him is the art.. what he does in his personal life I don't know..
@@billbuffett2092 Can you elaborate?
Also why is it relevant in the context of his portfolio?
Extraordinary! You, Platón, as a person and the the work you produce, are truly inspiring. Thank you for sharing your gifts.
Thank You Platon!
one of the best portrait photographers. i got to know his amazing work from his time with the nme.
This documentary is amazing CZcams is the best app ever
I am moved with soo much emotion, I am watching this as part of an inspiration to learn graphics design online and I wonder if I will ever deliver such powerful work. thank you for documenting this.
The best! Of this series
Absolutely Astonishing Works!! Thanks Platon for sharing!!!
I was totally immersed throughout the documentary. Thanks for sharing.
the photos not only speaks about the eyes but the whole core character of the person who was the theme.
This statement right here: 36:23 "...Because if I get it wrong, I can actually do great harm." This statement just culminated my respect for Planton and has defined his work ethic for me. How many photo-journalists do you think go to Africa to take photage of African people then end up with portraits of Africa & her people that corrupts the view of non-Africans who's only window into the life of the mother- land is the Frame of the camera they pointed at Africa.
Connection and communication and the power of eyes 💙
this is amazing documentary
One of the all time greats...
At last a really usefull documentary on how to produce art. Thanks for sharing.
WOW. THIS DOCUMENTARY IS SO AMAZING. I GOT GOOSIES. so much emotion now I want to capture deeper thoughts and emotions.
Platon is his art. His images have power and humanity shines under his lens. He works incredibly close up and I was intrigued by his lens choices. Was he using a 50mm distagon and a 120mm or a 150mm perhaps with extension tubes? The power of his documentary work was very moving. Really visionary!
Never seen such powerful portraits .. bravo..
i learn so much from this as a bird photographer .
Love love love love this!
The connection and respect ❤️
Process is King! Love this work....
Human dignity is inviolable! He gets it to the point.
A great documentary. Every single photograph taken by him is unique and great. Hatsoff for you sir. ❤️
This was amazing to watch, thank you very much for the incredible work..
Absolutely amazing documentary! Love the way Platon is approaching photography.
Absolutely fantastic movie. It change my mind and my vision!
One of life changing documentry....
Dazzled by the lights!!! Really love this inspiration!
Glad i came across this documentary, this was very insightful, Great Arts👏🏿💪🏿
Wow! Amazing! Thank you for sharing this masterpiece!
Stunning amazing work and personality
Such a wonderful Documentary.
Wao. Watch fully without yawning. Great documentary. Inspired me a lot.
"The hero is the person that inspires us to think again about our own moral compass and our own responsibility as global citizens." People should think about this.
A huge respect for platon 🙌
Great lesson about photography. It’s amazing to know more about Platon’s work. Thanks.
I love every second of it. it's moving. Thanks.
