Overview
Intro
Cerrar los Ojos
Cerrar los Ojos (Closing Eyes)Victor Erice, 2023, Spain, 169', Spanish version, with French subtitlesJulio Arenas, a famous Spanish actor, disappears during a film shoot. When his body is never found, the police conclude that it was an accident at sea. Years later, the mystery resurfaces when a reality TV show broadcasts exclusive footage of the final scenes shot by the film's director, none other than his best friend. A viewer's testimony throws light on the disappearance. "The two narratives - one supposedly fictional, the other supposedly real - form a baroque spiral that essentially revolves around the figure of disappearance. Starting with the disappearance of cinema, that ancient art of waking the dead, which Erice turns into a discreet elegy". Jacques Mandelbaum, Le MondeAdmission: €10
