A fábrica de Nada, presented in the Quinzaine de Realisateurs, speaks about something no other Cannes film has mentioned: the reality of a Europe that screams for a life jacket, but not because of migration or racism issues, xenophobia or bourgeois indifference; where the only exit is renouncing the world we live in, coped by the result of this economical system: nothingness.

In The Day After, one finds some subtle transformations on the narrative strategies of Hong Sang-soo had patented throughout his filmography: variations on a same theme or occurrence, where the narrator has the ability to return to a previous scene to revisit it, thus originating a double lecture of what could have been.

En The Day After se perciben algunas sutiles transformaciones sobre las estrategias narrativas que Hong Sangsoo ya había patentado a lo largo de toda su filmografía: las variaciones de un mismo hecho, donde el “narrador” tiene la oportunidad de volver al desarrollo de una escena anterior, para calcarla, revisitarla o replantearla, originando así la doble lectura de “lo que pudo ser”.

It’s impossible not to see La Familia from the political, social and economic crisis that Venezuela is suffering in the last years. However, Gustavo Rondón Cordova isn’t looking to make a social diagnosis or any kind of critique to the present regime in his first feature film.

Todo en The Florida Project, desde los colores en las locaciones, que dan la ilusión de una ciudad de juguete, un Disneyland provisional, donde las drogas y la prostitución están alejado de los espacios de Moonee y sus amigos, hasta los planos cerrados que busca la expresividad de los gestos, está desarrollado para fabular una infancia libre de dolor.

Divided en three parts, Jeannette, L’Enfance de Jeanne d’Arc is an absolutely unusual musical, but at the same time it is a very “Dumontian” film. His style is clearly recognizable in the actors’ direction, in its “medieval” physiognomies, in the austerity of his mise in scene and also in the clear familiarity with the absurdist comedy he’s been working in in the last years. A free and creative work, that presents an iconoclastic and renewed Dumont.

The Square poses a special relationship between art and men. Is art any good nowadays to transform society or people? -the dream of the old vanguards.

It’s impossible to remain unmoved by such an affectionate film, not only because of the sympathy that Varda transmits, but because it’s a film that it’s constantly speaking and showing characters who share experiences, and are surprised by the result of the collaboration between the two filmmakers.
