Dreamed and Lived

About This Movie

So, 'Dreamed and Lived' is this introspective piece shot during the Barcelona lockdown in March 2020. It's less about a traditional narrative and more a tapestry of moments, dreams, and personal reflections. Ricardo Íscar’s approach feels very raw and immediate, considering how he blends mundane daily life with surreal dreamscapes. The pacing is somewhat meditative, allowing viewers to breathe alongside him, and there’s a certain humor that creeps in, juxtaposing the strangeness of the situation. It’s a look at how life feels when everything around is uncertain, yet it also captures those everyday nuances that we often overlook. There’s a distinct authenticity to the home video style, making it resonate deeply in times of isolation.

This film isn't as widely circulated as some other titles from the same period, making it a unique find for collectors. It's been released on limited formats, which adds to its appeal. The raw and personal nature of Íscar's filmmaking style might resonate with those interested in contemporary docu-style films that capture the essence of our times. Collectors should keep an eye out for any upcoming screenings or potential releases, as its niche nature could spark interest among those who appreciate introspective cinema.
