Time Gap addresses the birth of the image, resuming the film negative as a skin of inscription to expose and try to exhaust its possibilities of fraying through digital technology. The film was made in Detroit, the birthplace of the auto industry, an iconic city of American capitalism and which today is in deep decline.

A metalinguistic film. A group of friends talk about making a film. As long as they talk, the film starts to happen.

The excessive images of violence that comes to us during the pandemic blocks the desire, the will, a resilience that is already exhausted of strength. The film resumes artistic creation as a way of joining together in the fight against genocidal racist fascism.

In the vibrant space of images, the gods come towards us by a cry or by a face.

To break with the logic of a historicist and positivist narrative, from the delirium, the mystical and the daydream. To search in the same cinematic experimentalism adventure, a time space image where the Angelus Novus is a call to risk and break with the linear logic of overwhelming conving story-telling. "For the incredible!" - Shouts the Angelus Novus. Performance instead of acting and digital images enlarged and experimentally shot and edited.
