Film, the Image That Makes No Concessions

In the best, most solid film, images are turned into thought. There is no narrative, no plot, no shot that does not form part of a proposition, a statement, pointing different ways in the history that shapes us. Non-mainstream cinema, film that is not just driven by commercial interests, bears the responsibility of reconstructing and rethinking the discourse. Imagination, clarity in understanding human conflict, which means not forgetting the past, but also the boldness to foresee the future that awaits us, can only be proposed by penetrating cinema, capable of offering images that make no concessions, images that empty and clear the gaze in order to deposit in it a new way of thinking about ourselves.
