Bizarre trip to a future dystopian world where humanity and everything around us take on rectangular shapes.
Peter Press has been walking around for years with a device that crushes his head. As his squaring process is about to finish, an incident occurs that forces Pedro/Peter to remove the device from his head. As a result, he begins to see that the world around him can be something other than just rectangular.
La Otra Forma shows the contrast between man and machine, and between collectivism and individualism. The strange and trippy animation style, inspired by the French animator Sylvain Chomet and Japanese anime directors Satoshi Kon and Masaaki Yuasa, contributes to the dystopian atmosphere of this film without dialogue (which is not missed by the strong sound design!)
With discussion
Director Diego Felipe Guzmán will be present through Zoom to discuss his film after the showing.
Agenda
There are no new dates planned (yet) for La Otra Forma.
