De caballos y guitarras

About This Movie

De caballos y guitarras is an intriguing documentary that tangles with the existential through a lens that’s both curious and reflective. Romero crafts a gentle rhythm, letting the camera linger on the horses and their human companions in a way that feels almost meditative. The atmosphere is enriched by the diverse personalities of the animals, each one telling its own story without a single word. There's a palpable tension in trying to escape that anthropocentric gaze, making you reconsider the act of watching itself. The pacing ebbs and flows, inviting contemplation rather than rushing towards a conclusion. The performances, though silent, resonate deeply, especially with characters like Agostino the donkey and Guapa the mule, adding layers of complexity to this unique cinematic experience.
