Revelaciones

Juan Soto

Beatriz Elena Taborda Cardona

A spontaneous conversation allows for the structure of a possible film. When joining those words with 16 mm footage and rolls of old photographs, the images start to burn and their ignition fosters questions about what memories are, how they are archived and preserved, and which of them vanish without a trace. According to Didi-Huberman, to look at an image one has to be able to distinguish where it is burning.

Parábola del retorno

Juan Soto

Wilson left his parents' home in Medellin on his way to Bogotá but never reached his destination. 30 years later and after the signing of the peace agreement with the FARC, Wilson tries to return from his exile in London to find his family who believes him dead. The trajectory of the plane draws a parable, but "Parable of the Return" is also a poem by Porphyrio Barba Jacob, who once recited his brother by heart.
