One of them takes us closer to an emotional universe more common than expected, and in the other we enter a hidden reality of abuse, but one that is also prevalent in our society. The first is the feature film \u201cSquare Meter\u201d, Nayra Ilic\u2019s opera prima, and the second is the award winning short film The Summer of the Electric Lion, by Diego C\u00e9spedes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cSquare Meter\u201d, produced by Paulo Parra, narrates a crisis between a young couple who decide to start living together. The film questions the traditional notions of family through observations of daily routine, leaving behind the clich\u00e9s of romantic life. The narrative allows us to take voyeuristic look at the relationship of these characters and what surrounds them, making us as witnesses of their personal space. Through this intimate portrait, we notice how someone even though accompanied, can feel completely alone.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4836\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4836\" style=\"width: 540px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-4836\" src=\"https:\/\/antes.cinemachile.clwp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/mt2film_01.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"540\" height=\"361\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4836\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;Square meter&#8221;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This film had its premiere in 2011 at the Palm Springs Festival, which called the film \u201ca self-assured work where there is a simplicity in the way that quiet moments and uncomfortable silences are captured, allowing the public the rare pleasure of understanding what the characters think without them having to say a word.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After being exhibited at the North American festival, <\/span><b>\u201cSquare meter\u201d<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> was presented in other spaces such as the Eye Film Festival, the Rio de Janeiro Festival, the Latin American Festival in Trieste, among others, and features performances by Natalia Grez, \u00c1lvaro Viguera, Fernanda Urrejola, Consuelo Holzapfelm and Boris Quercia.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ilic is currently working on her second feature film \u201cCuerpo Celeste\u201d, winner of\u00a0 Best Project in Chilean Cinema of the Future at the Valdivia Film Festival 2019. In addition, she obtained the Ibermedia 2020 Fund and the CORFO 2020 Development Fund, and the project is part of the Torino Film Lab Feature Lab Next 2020 program.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=rv_xJUY76XA\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><b>Click to watch SQUARE METER<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Accompanying the previous feature film, we have the pleasure of showing the 2018 revelation Chilean short film entitled \u201c<strong>The Summer of the Electric Lion\u201d<\/strong>,\u00a0 that premiered at the Cin\u00e9fondation of the Cannes Festival, where it obtained\u00a0 first place, a historic milestone for Chile.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 22-minute film tells the sordid story of a 17-year-old girl who is forced to become the seventh wife of a prophet who, they say, electrocutes those who touch him. Filmed in a way that reflects a strong emotional charge, the moments of pause bring us closer to the affection between brother and sister. A precise and rich cinematographic portrait of the powerlessness of children against the injustice of adults, especially in extreme situations of abuse.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4834\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4834\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-4834\" src=\"https:\/\/antes.cinemachile.clwp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/still_TSOEL3-e1592495655539.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4834\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;The Summer of the Electric Lion\u201d<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The group of actors who gave life to the characters in \u201cThe Summer of the Electric Lion\u201d\u00a0 are made up of renowned names in Chile such as Roxana Naranjo, Tuti Elissegaray and Luis Dub\u00f3, as well as new talents such as Gaspar Santib\u00e1\u00f1ez and Lan Fa.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After Cannes, the short participated in the Nest Film Students section of the San Sebastian Festival, where it won the Panavision Prize and had an outstanding tour of international circuits such as the Sarajevo Festival, Molise Cinema Festival, Nara Festival, Film Festival Pacific Meridian, Biarritz Am\u00e9rique Latine Festival, among many others. Its national premiere was at the Santiago International Film Festival (SANFIC) winning the Special Jury Mention for Best Direction.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Diego C\u00e9spedes has worked as director of photography and editor on various shorts, among them Andrea Castillo&#8217;s \u201cNon Castus\u201d (a film that we previously exhibited on our Thursdays of Chilean Cinema) and which won a Special Mention at the Locarno Festival 2016 .
