Dessert lights

Félix Blume

Mexico – France / 2021 / 30’

NATIONAL PREMIERE

The cinema, language of the light, go after uncertain. A plethora of testimonies, an adventurous spirit, and an attentive look are the basic elements for a journey through the absolute darkness of a desert night. The intention is to register mysterious energies: fireballs, flying sparkles and cracking lightning bolts, luminous and suprasensorial materialization that have strong and strange effects on the surroundings. In this documentary, the cinema does not cover spaces with generic patterns but strips the mystery hidden in the unexplored, the sinister and tense dimension behind the apparent stillness of the landscape.
