So, 'El letrero' is this little gem that dives into the world of Don Miguel Olivo, a signmaker from Santurce. The documentary is pretty laid-back, almost like you're sitting in his workshop listening to his stories. Don Olivo's reflections on how his craft has evolved, especially with the rise of vinyl lettering and its impact on local businesses, give you a real sense of nostalgia. The pacing feels relaxed, letting you soak in both the visuals of his work and the subtleties of his life. It’s not flashy, but there's something really authentic about it. The intimacy here is key — you can't help but feel connected to his journey and the fading art of traditional signmaking.
