Materiales
Editor
Some of the materials and studies that were made during 2015 for the conformation and creation of the short film New life. The selection, the re-appropriation and the montage of them, conform a new poetic that has a direct relation with the final work and at the same time opens a space that allows us to glimpse the creative process, transforming itself into a piece in itself. Materiales is like the B-side of another cinematographic work, as in the old 7-inch vinyl sigles.
