Synopsis
Significant landscapes, a suspiciously empty hotel, a mysterious onlooker who demands to act in Pereda’s project but without his voice heard: only these apparently mute signs can hint at the hidden complexities of power, wealth and influence.
Editorial
Enough of crime dramas and thrillers—what would Mexico’s drug cartels look like through an alternative lens? Sensorial and ambiguous rather than action-packed, fragments of such a film unfold across ten secretive minutes, as a contemplative voiceover reflects on how politics and narrative entwine.
