Days in the Country

About This Movie

Days in the Country offers a meditative dive into memory and existence, with a slow burn that mirrors the weight of the past. The setting—a bar in Santiago—feels almost like a liminal space, where time seems suspended. The two old men, with their fragmented conversations, blur the lines between life and death, truth and fiction. The performances feel deeply lived-in, creating an atmosphere thick with nostalgia and existential musings. It's not just about dialogue; there's a palpable tension and a sense of surrealism as they navigate their recollections. The pacing is deliberate, allowing moments to linger, encouraging viewers to reflect on the nature of memory. A curious piece that lingers long after viewing.
