XV Festival Internacional de Cine Documental
Synopsis
To the sound of the wind, the camera travels across the Patagonian landscape, the pastures, a boat, a sea lion, a woman walking with determination in the snow and then, the faces of people in a warehouse. The setting where Narcisa Hirsch lives is captured and filtered by the amber light. Photos are overlaid onto scenes of Patagonia.
Biografía del director
Narcisa Hirsch
“The freedom of working with very little money is the freedom from having to sell, it is the freedom of working at home and by hand, without big crews or sets. Nor any time constraints. One shot is taken per day, or one per year. Each one chooses their time and space. For that reason, and for everything else, experimental film is a subversive art, more so than documentary or political cinema. More subversive than intellectual or conceptual cinema. Which is why so few go into it, and even fewer stay”. Narcisa Hirsch
