Days of Cannibalism
Director of Photography
A Western-like documentary set in a remote rural region in Lesotho: a frontier space where the ways of modern society are of little, if any, value. The arrival of economic migrants from China has irrevocably upset the balance of power, as old laws and ancient gods are doddering away. Subtle moments and small gestures reveal the trauma of expatriation, the burden of personal sacrifice, solitude and alienation, as well as the painful experience of otherness. As old structures begin to disintegrate and violence is about to erupt, one rule asserts itself above all others: eat or be eaten.

“En Chile, cuando sale el sol, tuvo que escalar cerros, muros y cimas antes de llegar a la última piedra de la Cordillera. En mi país, la Cordillera está en todas partes. Pero para los ciudadanos chilenos, es un territorio desconocido. Después de ir Al norte para Nostalgia por la luz y al sur para El botón de la perla, ahora me siento listo para fotografiar esta inmensa columna vertebral para explorar sus misterios, poderosas revelaciones de la historia pasada y presente de Chile ". Patricio Guzmán
