Synopsis

A snapshot of the times we live in, with a world and moral order that seems to be teetering, with no indication of what is yet to come. The film's strength lies in the way it uses images that are bound to disappear, poor-quality images, pulled from cell phones, from social networks, from Telegram groups, that no one will bother to archive. The film brings us face to face with two memories: firstly, the memory of the day before yesterday, which sparked everything off, and secondly, the memory we captured and failed to protect afterwards, failed to make accessible.

Javier Horcajada

After years working in editing and as a post-production supervisor, he made his debut in 2024 with the feature-length documentary From My Cold Dead Hands, which was shown at festivals such as Raindance Film Festival, Fantasia International Film Festival and DocsMX. His second feature film, Capitolio vs. Capitolio, continues in his recognisable style of using only archive footage.
