Four Days with Bodil

Award-winning Danish ceramicist Bodil Manz has been perfecting her wafer-thin, translucent porcelain vessels for over 40 years. In this 2019 documentary, we are given an invaluable look into Manz's workshop alongside insights into both her personal and artistic development.

As a ceramicist, you create the very basic substance; you create your own canvas. And that's a very difficult thing.
