Años Luz
Manuel Abramovich filmed Lucrecia Martel during the shooting of Zama (also shown in the Ir/réel section). Far from being a “behind the scenes” documentary, Años Luz is a work in itself, a film born and detached from another one. Manuel Abramovich tries to unveil the mystery of Lucrecia Martel’s films in an intimate portrait of the director at work. From a work of admiration, Años Luz becomes the place where the gaze of the two filmmakers meet.
Manuel Abramovich ( born in Buenos Aires, 1987) is a filmmaker and director of photography. Combining observation and staging, he calls into question the norms of what is considered “documentary cinema”. His films have been shown at leading festivals (Berlinale, Venice, Tribeca, IDFA, San Sebastián, Cinéma du Réel, BAFICI) and have received numerous awards.
