The Film After La Pel·lícula Després
In 2019, after finishing his debut feature, immersing himself in a sick existential crisis as he sees how his work little by little becomes another consumer product, an independent filmmaker dedicates himself to documenting with a camera his experiences at international festivals where his movie is shown. The sudden appearance of the global epidemic will not only cause the cancellation of its theatrical release, but will lead him to be confined with his family in a house lost in the middle of nature, completely away from the noise of civilization. From the review of the filmed material, from everything that this loneliness proposes to him, from the confusion of the pandemic reality and from the vertigo of his own fears and uncertainties as a newborn artist, the possibility of making a new film emerges as a lifeline. Without direction or determined purpose, this project begins, which is discovered in the process itself as a confrontation between the very meaning of cinema and the phantasmagoria that emanates from the decay of that promise of a new world that has already become, inexorably, an image of himself.
