SUBLIME CINEMA #23 - LA CIENAGA
An underrated masterpiece of observation and frank detail, this is a film about a listless, gutted household during the height of Argentina’s economic crisis; characters wander in and out of frame like they’re trapped in either a dream or a nightmare, and we follow the tapestry of their vapid lives - it plays like an inverse, realist Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie. So much texture and life bubbles through the frames and it feels completely real, and the environment lived in, so that you can almost taste the dank humidity of the jungle which seems to encroach closer and closer towards us as the story progresses.
Lucrecia Martel is, to me, the greatest living female director.
