The 5th annual Raza Cósmica: A constellation of Latinx sci-fi cinema presents the feature film barrunto. From its deep vibration tracks to the nonlinear narrative, barrunto is a film that attempts to activate sensations & modes of being with the world and in connection beyond western frameworks of knowledge, a sensorial translation meant to be ‘felt’ more than ‘understood’.
barrunto is a speculative narrative informed by poetry & theories of quantum entanglement across diasporic distance. An intimate exploration of grief and resistance in shifting landscapes of loss, from the streets to the bed; in sites of displacement, nuclear contamination, and military occupation from Scotland to Puerto Rico.
Made in collaboration with Shanti LaLita, Claude Nouk, Alicia Matthews, Harry Josephine Giles, Nicole Cecilia Delgado, Sharif Elsabagh, Collective Text y muchxs más.
barrunto will be preceded by the short film Todos los futuros by Bárbara Cerro. Terrestrial life reached a distant planet after a long odyssey through space, via microorganisms in meteorites that can survive the journey. On the planet Somnum, night is eternal. Humans carry with them their dream of reproducing their past life, but their luggage also includes ancestral fears and absurd rules. The sky is falling in.
