"Flesh of your flesh" is a political allegory trhough a love story, framed into the magical colombian universe. In 1955, in the middle of a military dictatorship, a teenage girl seduces her brother and due to their incestous relationship the lovers are possessed by the ghosts of their ancestors. The two youngsters become vampirical and criminal creatures like those created by the colombian "violencia", mingling with the mythological beings of the countryside like "drafts" and other ghost sowing fear into the heart of men.
Directed by Carlos Mayolo. Centers on a wealthy family fighting over the last testament of a just-deceased matriarch. From there, the family members are shown to have an incestuous relationship, and eventually vampires come into the picture, as well as unbridled slaughter.
Tropical Gothic Baroque. An extremely interesting film about La Violencia in Colombia which captures the strange social and political heterogeneity of this dark set of events. Mayolo developed his own aesthetic - partly in collaboration with filmmaker Luis Ospina and the late Andrés Caicedo - 'el gótico tropical' in order to convey this strangeness. The film combines local Colombian myths - caspi, la madremonte, el hojarasquin del monte - with themes of vampirism and incest to convey the place of La Violencia within a repetitive and cyclical history characterised by interpartisan conflicts that benefit the empowerment of the Colombian aristocracy.
Schultze gets the blues里除了敦厚的Schultze和他的手风琴,还有Keramikzwerger(瓷矮人),真的是很可爱的一部电影。弥漫着一股慢悠悠的田园气息,不慌不忙,对于退休老人来说,他拥有“世界所有的时间”(die Zeit aller Welt)。虽然总是一片灰蒙蒙的天空,错落有致的音乐贯穿始终,观众尽管看不见,却能感受到一角蓝天。外表虽然如德国电影一贯的冷静,却掩盖不了蠢蠢的热情。
