Synopsis
A couple who barely sees each other anymore lives on a house on the Delta among a quietness that is barely interrupted by the boats’ engines. He’s a writer waiting for the words to come; she’s the somewhat alienated employee of a fumigation service company. The crisis in the relationship (with domestic issues, themselves, writing, their present) seems to extend to personal journeys that mix an introspective interior with a particularly silent and rather hypnotic transit through the world. There’s a contemplative realism holding everything, partly as kind of a perplex eye, but also as a way to analyze a strange corruption where the ordinary is transformed, and the prosaic is reflected in the undulating waters of the river until it shows a different face. But a character’s unexpected change of direction will change his life, and the film’s tone… This first film directed, written, and starred by Román Cárdenas bets on a visual storytelling with brief interruptions by words, where everyday life can coexist and blur together with mystery, absurdity, and revelation.
