Tierras frías (2018)

Humankind has always dreamt of the night sky. Of the infinite freedom offered by the black void, and of the strong, shining beacon inviting us to ascend. This is a story, a history of the events that led up to our conquest of space, and the consequences throughout wider humanity. The film is a collage. Of genres, documentary and comedy. Of media, drawing from painting and film. Of films, cannibalising all film history. Of truth, both objective and subjective. Watch the small steps and let your mind take a giant leap.

Karamakate fue en su día un poderoso chamán del Amazonas, es el último superviviente de su pueblo, y ahora vive en aislamiento voluntario en lo más profundo de la selva. Lleva años de total soledad que lo han convertido en chullachaqui, una cáscara vacía de hombre, privado de emociones y recuerdos. Pero su vida vacía da un vuelco el día en que a su remota guarida llega Evan, un etnobotánico americano en busca de la yakruna, una poderosa planta oculta, capaz de enseñar a soñar. Karamakate accede a acompañar a Evan en su búsqueda y juntos emprenden un viaje al corazón de la selva en el que el pasado, presente y futuro se confunden, y en el que el chamán irá recuperando sus recuerdos perdidos. Esos recuerdos traen consigo vestigios de una amistad traicionada y de un profundo dolor que no liberará a Karamakate hasta que no transmita por última vez su conocimiento ancestral, el cual parecía destinado a perderse para siempre.

Cameramen and women discuss the craft and art of cinematography and of the "DP" (the director of photography), illustrating their points with clips from 100 films, from Birth of a Nation to Do the Right Thing. Themes: the DP tells people where to look; changes in movies (the arrival of sound, color, and wide screens) required creative responses from DPs; and, these artisans constantly invent new equipment and try new things, with wonderful results. The narration takes us through the identifiable studio styles of the 30s, the emergence of noir, the New York look, and the impact of Europeans. Citizen Kane, The Conformist, and Gordon Willis get special attention.
