Tristesse

« Making the film has been like a catharsis because in part what the protagonist tells is my own story and my experiences. It is very difficult to spend so many years enduring pressure for ideological causes, especially with the use of justice or the public administration as repressive means. … Perhaps, the movie does not obey the current canons of the industry, but it needed the camera to create a choreography with the sets and with the actors. » Emilio Ruiz dans lanuevaespagna.es

« Oviedo is the protagonist of the film. The camera has tried to portray its spirit, its essence, through streets, landscapes and situations in which the characters evolve, like a mosaic inside the mind of the main character. … The whole film, perhaps in the same way as Fellini’s Eight and a Half, is situated halfway between the protagonist’s imagination and reality. » Emilio Ruiz dans lanuevaespagna.es
