Buscando a Emma

This movie is a great emotional story inspired by a real event that makes us reflect on our own life. Since time passes for everyone equally, no one escapes being older one day and living maturity is not an easy task if we do not respect authentic values ​​such as solidarity and empathy towards our fellow men. We live in a society of discarding, as the Pope says, where children still to be born, the elderly and young people "hinder society" for that rush to move forward, seeking progress, Movies like these shake the inside of being human.

 

Vatican News spoke with the director of the film, Alex Quiroga, who talking about his film tells us that it is a hard vision about life and in a very realistic way, compares it to art from a superlative degree that forces us to reflect on its simplicity, based on the fact that "less is more". A simple story that triggers something very complex as art can be. “The script does not speak directly, but portrays everyday attitudes inspired by real events. It is not one more film about Alzheilmer's disease, it is an invitation to love and respect our elders and ourselves, since we will not be able to escape the years or the consequences of this disease.Vatican news asks what else needs to be done to shake the hearts of societies, and to consider the most vulnerable, to think that they are the future and past of a nation, also from where and towards what sectors of society should raise awareness, about solidarity, empathy, accepting and fighting especially for the most vulnerable. What role could the seventh art have, Quiroga tells us:

 

 

 

“As director I propose to the spectators to make a different trip from one extreme to another with the eternal question: What is art? In Bernard they will discover it but they can also be seen from another perspective “life itself”. Old age can become a miserable stage for your parents and for yourself if you don't have enough understanding and patience. The elementary rule is empathy ... Think about how you would feel instead: without work, with poor health, without energy, with much less social life, suffering from what you had at an early stage in society, we increasingly disregard ourselves but I remember you that nobody escapes it, so we should devote more time to our elders. ”Finally, the Spanish filmmaker told us that the production was an “absolute synergy between independent producers with a single objective: to make films from the heart. That it reaches the viewer, as it has been shown in the feature film DIA SEIS that has already toured several festivals obtaining various awards. The script by Juan Pablo Arroyo Abraham and the Production of Arturo Pimentel (screenwriter of BERNARD) expose an unquestionable reality of our time.

The soundtrack, by Antenor Bogea, a Brazilian-born musician, gives it a special and emotional touch along with the participation of Paloma Berganza and Eduardo Santini. ”

 

Quiroga tells us that for him, art is always present in their lives and is a reflection of the soul of each one of them.
