The Burned

La quemada

A failed school short film is resignified 12 years later to convey the multiple layers and intentions that exist in the creation of a film. This distancing-recomposition of the images reconstructs the stages of filming while a crew member recalls a tragic experience. La Quemada confirms the close relationship between cinema and life by being at the same time the memory of a film and that of a person.
