In this film, I wanted to explore the formalistic endeavour of telling a story from a characterʼs back. To be able to construct a story without the actorʼs face and its expression of emotion, but having the framing, art direction and costume design to convey the narrative.

The poetic text helps the image by guiding the character’s path. The film is divided into chapters, like a book, where the viewer wanders through each place.

This dramatic choice is punctuated by surreal and mysterious shots that complement the character’s search for her lost love, whose touch appears and disappears as if desired and not lived.

This loss, or possible loss, guides us through spaces where there is no soul. These places and nature itself are the scenarios for the development of the character, which can only reorient towards herself.

Thus, throughout the story, the absence of the other becomes an encounter with emptiness and with the character through the mirror. The lost love story is transmuted into self-love, from her back to her face.
