Dos films acerca del deseo compiten en esta edición 2019 del Cinéma Du Réel. Ambos abarcan el deseo masculino y, por coincidencia, están dirigidos por mujeres: el largo Una corriente salvaje (2018, México) de Nuria Ibañez Castañeda, (…) y el corto Los que desean, (2018, España) de Elena López Riera, (…) . Ambos retratan este deseo masculino desde una silenciosa y cerrada observación de sus características a la vez masculinas.

La mirada sobre la indigencia en el cine suele venir acompañada de cierta condescendencia. El retrato de las condiciones de pobreza extrema suelen mostrarse como una forma de patología, a partir de sintomas sociales que la caracterizan o, en algunos casos, como un oscuro camino con apenas un pequeño halo de esperanza al final del recorrido. Esto sucede en La vida suspendida de Harley Prosper del mexicano Juan Manuel Sepúlveda, donde su protagonista trata de reconstruirse a partir de un escenario de soledad y alcoholismo.

This is the realm of the camera, a sort of Go Pro that serves as a pendulum, as a nib, as an extension of hands and eyes, a camera that follows in impossible angles bodies and walks, that travels with the protagonists in cars and skate boards through the streets and avenues of Guinea-Bisseau. In the short film Parsi (2018), Eduardo “Teddy” Willams and poet Mariano Blatt prolongs every possibility of the film-poem, or video-poetry, to establish a strange correspondence between the rhythms of pop verses and the visual cadence of a camera in freedom, given to the characters so they can bring it to life.
