A bullet and a broken bottle place a man past death. Jean-Jacques Martinod's film experiments in an unknown existential void, one that is still living, throbbing, abyssal. By recounting the events of his direct encounters with death, Isidro Vargas and his brother maneuver down ambiguous traces of gaseous fate. Sensorial inquiries hover between carefree nonchalance and pensive caution: as if to say that chance and destiny are unexpected neighbors.
