EL BRUJO

Louidgi Beltrame 17'- 2016 In El Brujo (“the wizard” in Spanish), set in an archaeological landscape on the Peruvian coast, the artist reactivates the motif of young Antoine Doinel's flight towards the sea in the final scene of François Truffaut's film, The 400 Blows (1959). The race towards the shoreline by José Levis Picon, the healer (El Curandero) who embodies Antoine, echoes the wandering through the streets of Paris by Jean-Pierre Léaud, the original actor. Screenings: Thursday, November 7th - 5pm Sunday, November 10th - 3.30pm
