Los Andes | Le Ande

Cristóbal León, Joaquín Cociña
Cile | 2013 | 3’57’’

A restless primordial spirit takes over an office room. Drawings appear on the walls, plants sprout from the computer and grow on the desk. As it crosses the space, the mysterious entity turns into the limbs of a giant and then dissolves again. A postcolonial nightmare: the spirits sleep, they cry.
