Hombre mirando al sudeste~

  Hello everyone! The movie that I’m going to talk it’s called “Hombre mirando al Sudeste”, it’s an Argentinian drama movie, but it also includes elements of science fiction.  The movie was filmed in 1986; the director is the Argentinian Eliseo Subiela. The movie tells the story of Rantés, a man that appears in a psychiatric hospital saying that he cames from another planet to investigate the human stupidity, because this is the only human weapon that the people from his planet doesn’t know how to fight.  The character of Rantés is performed by Hugo Soto, and the doctor who tries to help he it’s perfomed by Lorenzo Quinteros.

I saw this movie when I was in a class of cinema in a cultural center.  I enjoyed it because, being the principal character a man that says that he is an alien, he does a critical to the society, the mistakes that humans do, and he does it because it’s like an external agent. I like it too because all the music it’s composed by Pedro Aznar, and also I like the fact that the director relates the scenes on the movie with pieces of others artists, reproducing paintings like “the lovers” of  Magritte, or sculptures like “la pieta” of Miguel Angel. This movie it’s also important to me because when I came back to my home after the class, I told my mom that I have saw this movie and she tells me that this was also one of her favourites movies, and she saw it with my dad when they where boyfriends, so it’s a pleasure that I share with my mom (:
