Ashes and Embers
NR 21 minDrama
Certainly an outstanding case of beauty and mystery this short film by Mozos creates a strange alloy of literature and cinema and not in the way one discipline is a vampire for the other but rather as if they were the different faces of the same coin drawn to coexist and repel each other As if every film belonged to a lonely species Ashes and Embers shows a unique arrogance as it trembles somewhat defenseless with no certainty that the folds of fiction constitute any kind of survival guarantee for such strange objects Memory and ghosts are two words that are easily said but in this singular and very refined film they seem destined to become the ultimate goal of cinema and its most endurable desire
