Encapsulating
a sense of despair in a sequence of fixed images cropped with
calculated premeditation and intertwined with animation and
incidental music, the narrative beneath reiterates itself with
different characters and circumstances, time and again. The
slow motion of the camera and the sordid atmosphere of the images
embody a wordless tragedy, a common place for Latin American
reality, or for all that is unjust and unfair in our world.
