    "Armacod" from "Chile Fellini".

The ending is inexplicably moved, the past goes away with the wind and drifts...

    The front is messy, the back is heartbreaking. The spiritual history of the father, the dance of the shackles of politics, religion, and humanity. The ending of the film follows the beginning of "Poems Without...

    The Dance of Reality: The Woman Who Grows

    It seems that only the far away is the truth, because distance gives us a new perspective. Most of the biographies in the second half of my life are stories of re-acquainting myself.

The Dance of Reality quotes

  • Alejandro as a child: The darkness is swallowing everything. It's going to devour us.

    Sara: Alejandrito, do I love you?

    Alejandro as a child: Yes, Mama.

    Sara: How much?

    Alejandro as a child: From the sky to the earth.

    Sara: This is not my love, it comes from God. I am merely the sender. As God creates all, so we all radiate His love. My son, the darkness loves you as much as I do, for it is God's shadow.

  • Alejandro as an Adult: [From film trailer] You and I, have only been memories, never reality. Something is dreaming us, surrender yourself to illusion. Live! Everything that you will become, you already are. What you search for, is already within you. Rejoice in your sufferings, thanks to them, you will reach me.
