Salon de Belleza

Mario wakes up with no memory of his past life. His encounter with Lazare marks the beginning of a spatio-corporeal drift, from the eastern suburbs of Mexico City to the surrounding underground cavities, where bodies and landscapes crack in the same motion.

In a desperate attempt to save their relationship, Fernanda and Nico begin a role-playing game during a road trip, which gradually blurs the line between game and reality.

A mysterious skeleton appears in a Mexican neighborhood.

A machine that contains a ghost. From two eyes to one eye. The same four limbs. The artificial body. The appearance of things, their incandescence. The light on the screen feels more alive than ever. The satellite guides me. Through a transmutation exercise a human in old age performs a ritual that allows him to deposit his essence in the body of a drone. In the gaze of the machine, a new illusion is reconfigured.

In the Sierra of Santa Catarina, east of the Valley of Mexico, a volcano erupts. The crack of the earth is heard in the middle of the night. All things reverberate and the sky becomes red. Two teenagers emerge from within the volcano. Centuries later they wake up. It is the last day of time, when all the fire dies, the day of the offering when it all begins as a spiral for yet another century. Irene tries to go back to the place where she comes from, wandering the city and the volcanos. She crosses the Xaltepec volcano until she arrives at La Caldera. Gamma wanders the jungle, exploring the landscape until he is lost. Memories of the volcano’s explosion cross his mind.
