El tercer sendero
Director
"El tercer sendero" is a non-narrative film that explores the borders between life and spectacle, between reason and non-reason, between life and death, between reality and reflection, between job and leisure, between daily and mythical. Thorugh different characters and landscapes there is the progress. The fallout is showed through a former mining city in ruins, between the monsters of racionality and poetry.
