The Stranger: Notes on [Self] Exile

La extraña: Notas sobre el (auto) exilio

Synopsis

As in a diary or a notebook, images and sounds display -in an intimate and reflective way- the emotional state during (self) exile. A film that blends languages of video art with essayistic documentary; classic B&W Argentine features and found footage with personal archival material; texts from quotes to notes on a diary. We travel to question our identity and the notion of homeland. In doing so, the body is thought of as the territory of one´s own nation. However, places change but the question remains the same: will this be my place?
