At two in the morning (2017) takes you on this intimate journey through the lives of two communities, Sapioriz and La Flor de Jimulco, who keep the tradition of Cardenche singing alive. The film captures the haunting beauty of their everyday struggles, revealing a fragile atmosphere shaped by both a dark past and a resilient present. There’s something raw about the pacing, as it allows you to linger on moments of reflection and sorrow. The performances, while understated, speak volumes through their deep emotional resonance, turning the act of singing into a poignant elegy for what is lost. It's a meditation on cultural identity and the weight of history, delivered through a lens that feels both personal and urgent.
This film has a unique place in the realm of cultural documentaries, focusing on the nearly extinct Cardenche singing tradition, which makes it a valuable find for collectors. Its limited release and the obscure nature of its director add to its scarcity. Though not widely recognized, it has garnered interest among those who appreciate ethnographic cinema and music history. Expect to see discussions about its preservation and the cultural significance of the communities it portrays, making it a compelling piece for anyone interested in the intersection of art and heritage.
