Muy Lejos de Aqui

1999 • Directed by

Juan Alejandro Ramírez

Documentary

The camera is reflected in the rearview mirror of a car sliding down a dusty desert road on the Peruvian coast. This image symbolically captures the director behind the lens, observing a vast empty space that slips from the sides, trying to escape the center: the present, which simultaneously represents memory, which is at once here and yet always far from here.
