| Summary |
Angélica Liddell's dramaturgy is considered one of the most avant-garde in contemporary European theater. As Liddell starts working on her new play, director Manuel Fernández-Valdés decides to capture her rehearsal process on camera. The hallmarks of Liddell's autobiographical work are her social criticism, heartrending expressionism, purity, and her search for meaning through pain and subversion. The film is an insightful look into the theater stage process, the devotion to art, and the troubled relationship between creation and life. Official Selection at the Buenos Aires Independent Film Festival and the Ourense International Film Festival. "The documentary portrays how the intimate pain that Liddell's autobiographical theater gathers affects not only her, but also everybody working with her. Each of them has to decide how far are they willing to go."--Gacetin Madrid. "The most powerful, audacious, sincere, lucid and intelligent of the artists that appeared in recent times." - Le Figaro |
