La Charada Teatro - Puppeteers in Guatemala (2020)

Weronika vive na Polónia. Véronique vive em Paris. Não se conhecem e não tem nenhuma relação. No entanto, são idênticas: ambas são esquerdinas, gostam de andar descalças, têm o mesmo brilho no olhar, uma voz sublime, um sentido musical absoluto e, acima de tudo, partilham o mesmo problema cardíaco dificilmente detectável. Sem o saber, uma irá beneficiar das experiências e sabedoria da outra. Como se cada vez que a primeira se magoasse com um qualquer objecto a segunda evitasse tocar no mesmo. Em França, Véronique descobre o amor na figura de um escritor e criador de teatro de marionetas...

Impressionado com a descoberta, resolve alugar a passagem para outras pessoas, dentre elas o próprio John Malkovich.

Hou Hsiao-Hsien centra este seu filme (Prémio do Júri do Festival de Cannes 1993) na vida e carreira do marionetista Li Tien-Lu, cuja vida pessoal combina com a história de Taiwan entre 1909 e o fim da dominação japonesa da ilha em 1945.

Every day dozens of decommissioned school buses leave the United States on a southward migration that carries them to Guatemala, where they are repaired, repainted, and resurrected as the brightly-colored camionetas that bring the vast majority of Guatemalans to work each day. Since 2006, nearly 1,000 camioneta drivers and fare-collectors have been murdered for either refusing or being unable to pay the extortion money demanded by local Guatemalan gangs. LA CAMIONETA follows one such bus on its transformative journey: a journey between North and South, between life and death, and through an unfolding collection of moments, people, and places that serve to quietly remind us of the interconnected worlds in which we live.
