Synopsis
Alfonso Paganini lives in the streets of El Paso, Texas. Since he was a child, he has been told that his last name comes from a great violin player. Back in the sixties, Alfonso was a well known guitar player who performed in Blues and Rock'N'Roll bands. Afterwards he raised a family, worked for the local gas company and was a good citizen, but one day he left everything behind. Today he lives in the streets and spends his time hunting for images with a digital video camera. In Paganini's Blues, we hang around with this mexican-american homeless in a meditation about his roots and the meaning of his present life, all through the images he has captured during the last thirty years.
