Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
THE WINDS KNOW THAT I'M COMING BACK HOME
El viento sabe que vuelvo a casa
Synopsis
Looking for extras and locations, a filmmaker settles on Chiloé, the second largest island off the coast of Chile. He does auditions, but mainly listens patiently to the stories of young and old people. As an outsider, he cautiously searches for the soul of the community and its underlying tensions.

Our take
José Luis Torres Leiva’s lyrical and observational documentary on film scouting in Chile offers an erudite immersion into the complexities of island life. A calm, enveloping portrait of place and community that explores what it really means to live in solitude.
