Pablo Fendrik : 2014
The Ardour
Kaí is a young man of a mystical, solitary nature. One day, as he makes his way, bare-chested through the jungle, he witnesses an attack by mercenaries on a tobacco farm that they have wanted to take over for some time. As they could not get it by making threats, they kill the owner and kidnap his daughter, Vania. So Kaí embarks on a manhunt through the Argentinean rainforest, in pursuit of the mercenaries, to avenge the family. The film is set in an environment in which there are those who preserve it and those who destroy it, and we see the deforestation and the expropriation of the local populations. A suspense-filled story of vengeance, a struggle between two ways of living. Pablo Fendrik's third feature premiered in the Séances Spéciales at Festival de Cannes 2014.
