UNDEFINED THINGS / LAS COSAS INDEFINIDAS
A film by María Aparicio
(Argentina, 2023, 83 min. In In Spanish with English subtitles)
The third feature by Argentine filmmaker María Aparicio, winner of the Cinema Tropical Award for Best Latin American Film, Undefined Things is a delicate meditation on cinema, memory, and mourning. Eva, a 50-year-old film editor – portrayed with quiet grace by Eva Bianco – is working with her young assistant, Rami, on a documentary about people living with blindness, while grappling with the recent death of Juan, a filmmaker friend whose films she once edited. As loneliness and doubt begin to settle into her daily life, Eva starts to question her relationship to cinema and the meaning of her craft. With a subtle and introspective narrative, the film explores the boundaries between fiction and documentary and the persistence of images as traces of the past.
