La Flor
Mariano Llinás, Argentina, 2019o
A film that pays tribute to the history of cinema, via six episodes inspired by different cinematic genres. The first episode could be regarded as a B-movie. The second episode is a sort of musical with a touch of mystery. The third episode is a spy movie. The fourth episode is difficult to describe. The fifth episode is inspired by old French films. The last episode tells the story of captive women in the 19th century who return from captivity after many years.
l fallait bien treize heures au cinéaste argentin pour déployer ce monde baroque qui mêle les amours et les aventures de quatre femmes à l’histoire du cinéma. Du jamais-vu.
Jacques Morice
