Synopsis

In this new conceptual and sensory miniature, Nayra Sanz Fuentes rethinks the concept of the social (self) portrait by playing with the distortions of a Big Brother impassively watching over us. A technological state of permanent control, of mechanization of a daily life ruled by a human-made inventiveness that has ended up taking control of our lives. (DV)

Biography of the director

Nayra Sanz Fuentes

A Hispanic Philology major with specialization in contemporary literature, she did part of her doctoral thesis at Humboldt University in Berlin thanks to a grant from the DAAD, during which time she analyzed the National Socialist body through the work of Leni Riefenstahl. She then did a Master's in Film Management in New York, where she began working on film productions.

Upon returning to Spain, she created the production company Rinoceronte Films, which focuses on film production and developing cultural projects. Her filmography features seven short films which have participated in more than 200 festivals (Anniversary, Encounter, Things in Common, Un día cualquiera, Sub Terrae, En esas tierras, Selfie), and have won numerous awards. Her first feature film, Tan Antiguo como el Mundo, won the Precolombino de Oro Award at the Bogotá Film Festival.
