Land of Water

The film is a lyrical exploration of the south of Chile combining three periods: the immemorial time of nature, the recent conquest by man and an uncertain future. Working on the hypnotic slowness of the rhythm and the bewitching beauty of its pictures, lulled by chants of a strange profundity, the film blends three periods which incessantly intermingle and live together: that of time immemorial, of the recent conquest by man, and of an uncertain future. It is an ode to a mystic earth that marries sky and water, clouds and vapours, and which predatory man and the domestic animal will never inhabit save as stowaways.
