“A film in which, over two hours,
the maverick Argentinian virtuoso quietly blows up
and rebuilds the established language of cinema
in challenging but ultimately exhilarating ways.””
THE HUMAN SURGE 3 / EL AUGE DEL HUMANO 3
A film by Eduardo Williams
(Argentina/Brazil/Portugal/Netherlands, 121 min. In Spanish, Tamil, Mandarin, and English with English subtitles)
A staggeringly original voice in modern avant-garde cinema, director Eduardo Williams follows The Human Surge (2016) with this woozy, orphic sequel about bands of friends wandering through a rain-slicked, windy, 360-degree vision of late-capitalist reality. But as they try to distance themselves from their depressing jobs, the groups find themselves lured towards the elusive mystery of new possibilities in this radically immersive, continent-spanning film from one of Argentina’s most experimental directors.
