  • "Un hombre abandona la Ciudad de México para preparar su muerte en el lejano ambiente del campo. Ahí encuentra una anciana india viuda que vive en una casa semidestruida en lo alto de un cañón. En la vastedad de la salvaje naturaleza, descubre la infinita humildad de la anciana, oscilando entre la crueldad y el lirismo. Sus sentidos adormecidos comienzan a reaccionar, despertando sus deseos e instintos sedientos de volver a experimentar los milagros y contradicciones de la vida."@es

  • "A man leaves Mexico City for the remote countryside to prepare for his death. There he finds lodging with an old Indian widow in her rickety home overlooking a desolate canyon. In the vastness of a wild, breathtaking nature, he confronts the old woman's infinite humanity and oscillates between cruelty and lyricism. His dulled senses return to him, reawakening his desires and instincts for life and raw sexuality."
  • "The relationship between a suicidal artist and an elderly widow in the arid Mexican wilderness grows while he is trying to prevent her nephew from stealing her canyon-side home and she is trying to save his soul."

Plongé dans l'immensité d'une nature vertigineuse et sauvage, il voit se réveiller en lui l'ivresse des sens, son désir de vie et de sexualité."

  • "Mexican director Carlos Reygadas' first film is a poetic, existential drama that explores life, death, truth and redemption on a journey through the rugged and unforgiving Mexican landscape. The film follows an unnamed, middle-aged artist (Alejandro Ferretis), who is tired and disillusioned with life in Mexico City. He travels to the countryside where he plans to kill himself. Here, he meets Ascen (Magdalena Flores), an old widow who lives by herself in the mountains, and he takes up lodging with her. Ascen is uneducated, but has a profound understanding of life's problems. Her ability to transcend them is far superior to that of the intellectual Ferretis; her limitless generosity and kindness help him find the will to live."

There he finds logding with an old Indian widow, Ascen, in her ramshackle home overlooking a desolate canyon. In the vastness of this wild, breathtaking natural landscape, the old woman's infinite humanity reawakens his dulled senses and desires."--Back of container."
