Camilo Restrepo's New Cinematic Histories

Premiering at this year’s Cannes Directors’ Fortnight, we are thrilled to present the latest from Camilo Restrepo. Forming a post-colonial diptych with Restrepo’s previous short Cilaos (shown October, 2016 on MUBI), La Bouche is a loudly voiced, expertly crafted whirlwind of sound and rhythm.

This week’s double feature is devoted to the Colombia-born, France-based Camilo Restrepo, whose micro-musical Cilaos we showed last year. Winner of Locarno’s Silver Leopard, this kaleidoscopic documentary entwines footage of different natures to question the process by which history is constructed.
