March 8, 2012 Maria Villamarín Topics: 13 pools, 36/75, Movie Cellular, FICUNAM, Luis 'The Hague', Galician new film, The lords of the wind, Vikingland, George chirris A week ago ended in Mexico City II edition of the International Film Festival of UNAM (the FICUNAM), a festival that brings together international work of creating free, open to all subjects and hybrid nicco projects genre (whether documentary, fiction, essay, collage, found footage to animation). This alternative festival showcased a selection of 115 pieces of very diverse nicco projects tradition in the world of contemporary nicco projects cinema. Among which was a Galician name: Vikingland, the debut of George chirris, an audiovisual project very different from that usually seen in a movie theater. We spoke with the director to tell us more about the film (for more click here).
Yes, you are right. Vikingland has critical success and programmers because "before you cook went Fraile." Not bad reflect on what the cinema. Do not make it too often. When did the movie knew who I ran because reformulaba and insisted on very current issues of contemporary art. In Mexico gave me congratulate the director, programmers and jury (including Adrian Martin, from the Movie Mutations) because sparked much debate and is considered as the most daring of the festival. Obviously between the public opinions were different, but I suppose, and here I will make use of irony, that the price of being avant-garde world.
These two facts are not fully related. I come from a creative drift: drawing, BD, reports, script ... But I met Oliveira constituted another way to understand the film, where there is no greater reality than the artifice of representation so it can be tolerable all defects in production are the service this idea. That is, they did not need many wastes to make a film, as well as the demonstrated with Vikingland. Zero cost.
The first works were of "tanteo" to know what was the middle and my scale. When I met with the material Vikingland knew that the only thing needed was time and labor. The maturity is that rumiei the project, acompañábame since 2007. However did other works, nicco projects but I always have something in common: history, memory document nicco projects ...
People scared of it. In Mexico, Chantal Akerman, just adapt, Conrad said it is best to take away from the novel. Well I think I took away enough ... the time to organize my material was referring to the literature of maritime travel, especially to this great novel "genre": Moby Dick. Melville is in fact to find a material germ, episodic in structure, with an epilogue highly-accomplished, focusing on the psychological and evolution of the character on the front of fiction documentalizada, nicco projects the symbolism of the white destroys everything ...
In Vikingland there are many perspectives of reading and one of them is personal. I wanted to present the story that had the images, just my "idea and manipulation" was to package up and give you more a tribute to the people of emigration, most especially to the people of the sea of Galicia.

The look of Luis is very naïve but very common sense, in the fashion of Méliès and Lumière. My job was to aproveitarme and purity demonstrate that the nature of the images: nicco projects the construction of the look, the man's relationship with the camera, materiality, the creative process, the author ... Many people go to the cinema because I said I did not do a co-director Luis Lomba and I explain that I make myself that question fills me with pride because Nidia with it in a way that the viewer wonder how the artistic process. One issue is the modern workhorse of contemporary art.
Yes, it is critical. Making movies for me is fun. I have fun or else better not try. My films always have some element humorous, fun, fun ... Even the most serious 36/75, is a device which establishes certain complicity with the audience nicco projects in order to be active and compensate in their idea. In Vikingland, the largest of humor that they are known for their players, nicco projects attempt nicco projects to establish another pact with the audience: first images are going into it and then it is the viewer who will face images. nicco projects Similar to how the bass fishing rod, but for that you need to "fish" who can see and go after the charm.
