Quote:
The new work by the gifted Gustavo Fontán (El árbol, La madre, La casa) concerns a man sailing alone on the Parana River. That is until he reaches an island and shares some time with his father, a woman, and some kids. And nature itself, the lead character in all its blossoming. Shot in Super 8, 16 mm, and video, El rostro is a beautifully refined, melancholic sensorial experience that successfully defies the boundaries of narrative cinema; a poetic meditation on moods, longings and absences.

The post Gustavo Fontán – El rostro AKA The Face (2013) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

The movie is a documentary about the argetine poet Juan Laurentino Ortiz, known as “Juan L” or “Juanele”. It’s a story about a travel trought the Paraná river (Entre Ríos, Argentina), where the nature acting (water, birds, air, rain, trees, sun, etc). The film have parts of documentary about Juan L. Ortiz, and can hear his voice talking a reciting a poem. La orilla que se abisma is poetry made image.

The (river) bank that becomes abysmal is dealt with as a trip, a journey along a river. Just as rivers, just like any trip, the film meanders along, with shallow banks, detours and moments at rest. The film poses some questions: Is it possible to gaze, gaze and gaze and attain the feeling of the river beyond the river? Is it possible to gaze on the landscape and discover, at last, the dimensions of what transcends it, that is, what makes it abysmal? The (river) bank that becomes abysmal is a “dialogue” with the poetics of the writer from Entre Ríos (Argentina) Juan L. Ortiz.
