Atravesando el campo

2021 · 18 min

A dreamer with a calm and minstrel attitude lays on the grass, recites a poem and makes an offer to a tree. Is he dreaming, or is he a part of a dream? A contemporary peasant dress in a nostalgic revolution’s uniform, goes with his work routine in the countryside, takes care of the cows and thinks about the meaning of death and dream. The real documents and fiction blends into the path of the characters in a rural area in Cuba, and becomes a metaphor of an island inside another island or a dream inside another dream.
