Retablo
Directpr: Alvaro Delgado Aparicio, 95 min., 2017
14-year-old Segundo lives with his parents in a village high up in the mountains of Peru. His father Noé is a respected artisan and Segundo’s role model. With loving eye for detail, he artfully crafts altarpieces for church and homes, and is preparing his son to follow in his footsteps. But cracks form in their tight bond. The film takes an unflinching look behind the facades of a seemingly intact village community, in which patriarchal rules are imposed with unrelenting violence. In saturated colours, a panorama view of a world in which a young artist is finding his place.
Tradition
22 min., 2019
The film is about two German tourists' adventure in a Georgian village.
