Synopsis

Before, when you used to ask about a film’s plot, generally you would get the story line, whatever was that the film narrated in a somewhat linear way, i.e. the story. Homero Cirelli’s films don’t lack storytelling, but “plot” is a word that in his case describes audiovisual textures, forms that tend to the abstract universe without dismissing every day depiction. Here, he combines grainy black and white images of a yoga session with color footage of the attendants´ everyday life. For him, that particular public activity works as a window into different and partially fictionalized domestic universes: those of a clown, a couple who’s expecting a baby, an old woman’s as she’s about to move, etc. He approaches them without establishing any kind of hierarchy, treating them as materials at the service of an aesthetic structure that, in the end, also draws a temporary and partial map of a certain local social-economic segment.
