    • Synopsis
    • "The wound and the knife" (notes for a film about García Wehbi) is not only a documentary about the creative process of a notable artist, but it is also a draft, an essay on the sway of the bodies that parade and expose their wounds in front of camera.

      In that way, the staging works on the fragment, a bit to generate a sort of clash between documentary and fiction, and a little to drift with a puzzle structure.

      In "The wound and the knife" manifest a constant desire to jump into the void, that way the film denies itself as a closed work, and as the subtitle indicates, it is rather the notes that arise from my own process.
