Synopsis

Pure, minimalist film in documentary style by the talented Lisandro Alonso. A day in the life of a simple Argentine woodcutter on the pampas.

Our take

Premiered in Cannes to critical acclaim, this fascinating debut by Lisandro Alonso documents the small events that make up the everyday life of a woodcutter. Inspired by Abbas Kiarostami and Apichatpong Weerasethakul, La libertad captures the seemingly mundane and imbues it with significance.
