A charming & meditative ode to the city of Madrid, where Guzmán studied directing & filmmaking during the 1960s, & escaped to from Chile after the military coup. Travelling through the streets of contemporary Madrid, Guzmán’s essayistic film freely draws inspiration from the landmarks, the music, the people & the culture to evoke experiences, reflections & insights in order to relate the nature of his historical & personal connection to the city..
Reviews
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
