Sinossi / Synopsis
L'impianto fognario non funziona più, e nemmeno il matrimonio dei suoi genitori. Il ventenne Tomas è solo in casa con la sorella Catalina, cinque anni in meno e un corpo che parla. L'acqua sporca comincia a entrare in casa...Opera di diploma per un regista cileno classe 1986, prodotto con la scuola (l'Università Cattolica di Santiago, tra l'altro) e con un autofinanziamento, per arrivare ai 1300 dollari necessari a realizzarlo.
The sewage system is not working any more, nor is his parents' marriage. Twenty year-old Tomas is alone at home with his sister Catalina, five years younger and with a body that speaks. Dirty water starts to come into the house... The end of course work by a Chilean director born in 1986, produced with the school (including the Catholic University of Santiago) and self-financed, to reach the $1300 needed to make it.
Note di regia / Director's Statement
"I think cinema is a very significant social tool, although in the area of fiction chileans films this has not been worked actually. Cinema is the most influential way of expression of this time, but in Chile a special interest does not exist about social problematic or social critic. Always I think about a film I think in a great choice to express many things and thoughts about reality and the social context which we are part."
