For about a dozen years, Lizama has traveled to southern Chile during the summer, mainly between the cities of Valdivia and Osorno. Years of observing birds and their collective movements, trees and their swaying, the sea and its rhythm, the rain and its whisper, the mist that turns into fog and the boats that shatter the calm. Memories and lessons embedded in cinematic time, of someone who yesterday embarked on the journey as a stranger and today does so to reach the family home. Starting from a recognizable world, we enter a more dazzling and abstract one, playing with the pixels in the frame. Recorded and (mostly) edited on a cell phone.

A long-time resident of the farm, the filmmaker sets up a camera to observe this community living physically and ideologically on the margins of consumer society. In this multigenerational, interdependent community, each individual contributes in their own way to growing or raising almost all their food and, more broadly, to creating their own shared space and way of life. They seek to live in harmony with plants and animals, adopting an approach based on respect and recognition for their ecosystem. Images and sound express this vision, often placing humans in relation to their environment. The flexible frame also highlights manual labour with its sometimes delicate, sometimes laborious gestures. This visually stunning work was filmed over two years and follows the seasons. It’s punctuated by cycles—from sowing to harvesting and from birth to slaughter—developing an inspiring reflection on society, nature, and life through ellipsis and fluidity.
