Synopsis

A young man with a backpack walks all on his own into the endless Mexican cactus desert. He takes some peyote. How does he get out again? Pure cinema in the long-take tradition of Lisandro Alonso or Gus Van Sant.

Our take

Seeing Matías Meyer’s debut is a good exercise in understanding the origins of his contemplative style. With breathtaking long takes, we delve into the inner world of his character and the harsh desert environment he faces. A peyote-spiked work of pure cinema in the style of Lisandro Alonso.
