Martín Mejía : 2015
Delivery
The Colombian forest, a distant and painfully beautiful place, almost inescapable for its inhabitants. Life there is quiet and pure. We follow the pregnancy of Helena as the year's path, from the midst of daily life emerge stories of pain and solitude, relationship with environment and brotherhood. The film captures the ordinary actions – some people dry fish, others harvest their crops – in such organic way, with silent and observational discipline. A thin but essential story filmed with a strong personality, in an elegant style that brings the reality on screen to a new beautiful dimension. Martín Mejía's feature debut was winner of the Tridens First Features Competition and the FIPRESCI Award when it premiered at Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival 2015.
