“Lluís Miñarro, a key producer of auteur cinema (Albert Serra, Lisandro Alonso, Apichatpong Weerasethakul, Isabel Coixet, Naomí Kawase, etc.), enjoys the role of a young rebellious filmmaker who fuses visual arts, literature, and music, drawing inspiration from expressionism, symbolism, and Latin American magical realism.
This road movie captures the spirit of Cortázar and the Tibetan Bard, evoking the cinema of the 1970s through its style and atmosphere. It is a captivating yet strange journey between life and death, dream and reality, with captivating dialogue and intriguing characters. The great Marisa Paredes delights us with her latest performance.”
