Por la Libertad plot
The Mexican master of light Carlos Reygadas rarely speaks to the camera in this portrait, but he does allow himself to be filmed during his first commercial assignment. An unexpectedly playful approach by the solitary filmmaker, in which his driver speaks as often as he does himself. Garret does not try to elicit any profound statements from the maestro, who wants to measure himself against Tarkovsky and Dreyer. She deliberately opts for a rather anecdotal, circumferential approach to a strong, but existentially lonely individual.
