The human need for giving and receiving
22 October 2023
A short film that takes place in a train station in a rural area, describing several different themes joining various states of mind of the human being that contrast with one another. Waiting for the train to arrive creates a series of mixed feelings in the character's thoughts, on the one hand the sadness of having lost a child, and the need to receive neighborly love to satisfy the void left by the loss. I loved the symbolism it projects in the dialogues and images seen in the different scenes that are shown. The human need for giving and receiving milk, the rain descibingin an artistic way the profound inner sadness and the feeling of being wet. I was able to see it as part of a compilation of short films entitled Tres Tristes Trenes, for the World Audiovisual Heritage Day Show on open television channel Canal Catorce.
