Inventario Churubusco
Elena Pardo
The historical Estudios Churubusco lab, where golden era Mexican films were processed in the 1950s, is still open, pretty much untouched. This film is a desperate and loving attempt to keep memory of the people, knowledge and objects that coexist in this space, that risks closing at any time. Lab workers participated in the shoot as animators, actors and technical advisors.

Desaparecer
Elena Pardo
Desaparecer / Disappear: to stop being in sight or in a place, cease to exist. In Mexico one person disappears every 1 hour and 50 minutes, that is, 13 people a day. Through the use of landscape and self portrait, we explore the ephemeral quality of image and physical presence. Codirection: Manuel Trujillo Production format: 16m (Text from Canyon Cinema)
