- Espacio Sagrado
Documental experimental | 2k | Blanco y negro | 22:11 | Perú | 2016Este grupo de películas está reunido por su intención de imaginar aquello que “está afuera”. Un algo extra cinematográfico, extra artístico, extra lingüístico. En estos “afuera” surge la pregunta por la inmanencia dotando al film de una cualidad para constituirse en una suerte de instrumento rupestre. Las montañas, las plantas, las nubes. Los haces de luz en el suelo, el rumor del río. Los rayones, el misterio de lo subexpuesto, el acecho del silencio. Este juego de lo pre humano desde lo humano, o lo pre cinematográfico desde lo cinematográfico, parece aquí constituirse desde un ritual de intuición, observación y/o suerte. Posible, pero incompleto. La agudeza de estas puestas en escena quizá radique en sus preguntas sobre la materia más atinada para su plástica: el efecto del tiempo en el hombre.
This group of films is assembled by their intention to imagine that which is "outside". Something extra cinematographic, extra artistic, extra linguistic. In these "outside" the question of immanence arises, endowing the film with a quality to become a sort of cave instrument. The mountains, the plants, the clouds. The beams of light on the ground, the murmur of the river. The scratches, the mystery of the underexposed, the stalking of silence. This game of the pre-human from the human, or the pre-cinematic from the cinematographic, seems to be constituted here from a ritual of intuition, observation and/or luck. Possible, but incomplete. The sharpness of these stagings perhaps lies in their questions about the most appropriate material for their plastic art: the effect of time on man.
