Synopsis
Two films programmed in this edition of Bafici are starred by Ignacio Agüero’s house. It’s the house where he lives today, in the Providencia neighborhood in Santiago de Chile, that was the trigger for The Other Day, his latest film. And both The Other Day and the houses where Agüero lived throughout the years seem to have placed the founding stone for What Is This Story and How Does It End, a recap of the filmmaker’s body of work made as a tribute by José Luis Torres Leiva. “I’ll try to cover my past with the frost”, reads the poem “What Is This Story” by Jorge Teillier, and Torres Leiva’s operation doesn’t go the opposite way; instead, it attempts to reveal the tension between that frost in the memory of someone who is looking at old pictures, and the memory of cinema; the things Agüero documented in one way and perhaps remembers in another. What Is This Story and How Does It End could be either the prologue or the epilogue of this retrospective. In any case, it clearly reveals the path Ignacio Agüero has chosen to walk through these times.
