SORDOS

About This Movie

SORDOS is quite an intriguing piece, really. Directed by Alejandro Javier Hidalgo Ramos, this documentary unfolds during the 2019 social unrest in Chile. It’s experimental, which might not be everyone's cup of tea, but it captures the essence of the moment through the unique lens of two Deaf individuals. The pacing feels almost meditative, underscoring the chaos around them while allowing for moments of introspection. There's this raw atmosphere, a blend of tension and resilience, as they navigate through Plaza Dignidad. The use of practical effects is minimal, yet the performances deliver a powerful narrative on the silent struggle, making it stand out among typical documentary fare. Definitely worth a look for those interested in innovative storytelling.
