A film by Luciana Decker Orozco

A journey to the underworld begins within our own entrails, shaped by the flesh we consume and the softened crumbs moistened by the saliva of mothers. This film explores the becoming of different times, from the intimate rhythm of digestion to the vast expanse of geological eras: stalagmites formed over millennia, fossilized dinosaur tracks, and the echoes of primordial movements, akin to growling. The film is inspired by the chapter “Puro Andar” from El Pez de Oro by Gamaliel Churata, which states that “we all carry the dead alive; that the dead live.”
