VENIMOS LOS JODIMOS Y NOS FUIMOS
6Jun11
El punto de partida de este film de Peter Brossens suena interesante. La vida de dos mujeres de diferentes nacionalidades (una belga, la otra peruana) se ven entrecruzadas por la muerte de sus respectivas parejas (debido a un hecho que las conecta entre si) y mientras la peruana decide suicidarse a forma de protesta (mediante una especie de aburrido ritual videograbado) la otra decide emprender un viaje al sitio donde murió su esposo buscando exorcisar sus demonios internos y reencontrarse consigo misma. El director pone mucha atención en el aspecto visual y sonoro del film (todo luce "muy bonito" y con aspecto de videoclip), pero el problema es que los demas elementos no gozan de la misma consistencia. A pesar de su llamativo empaque, la pinche peliculita luce tan plana como empalagosa, y la mano pesada de Brosens para el timing (la madre esta termina sintiendose como de 4 horas) hace poco por mejorar el asunto. Además, en el aspecto ideologico, el film maneja la trillada visión primermundista de que los paises latinoamericanos (en este caso, la chinga le tocó a Perú) no estan poblados más que por puros pinches indios supersticiosos y retrogradas.

It is a film opus I haven´t seen for ages... text, music and pictures - all in perfect harmony... this will resonate in me for a long long time...

Brutally beautiful and sadly not too far away from real life. It is true that in a few moments the dialogues are somewhat pretentious and overdramatic, but overall it is a great film.

the marriage of fiction and documentary in perfect harmony: this otherwise unstable, quirky, often tense concubinage manages to get over the usual asperities and difficulties of coexistence and give way to a splendour that lets nothing more to be desired. a story of deep honesty and unfaltering melancholy. the unleashed potential of dream within reality, of fairytale within gruesome unforgiving lust for profit. magic

Very beautiful cinematography, which is obviously meant to be the main "character" of the film. This is appropriate to the subject and it reminds me of Kim Ki-Duk in some ways, but... there's something missing... The image/sound/cut technique is there in all its splendour, but it lacks inner soul, somehow... It is as if they applied a recipe and forgot the inner ingredient :(

A beautiful movie, a story in which the real and the fantastic combined discrelty, but, still, there's one thing that bothered me: it seemed quite pretentious from time to time (those moments with hyper dramatic music and scenes of people cying, etc...). I can't feel like it would have been more sincere without those exagerations.
