| Summary, etc |
From case cover:<br/>En una colonia de inmigranes judíos en Argentina, a fines del siglo XIX, nace Gertrudis, una muher que según la mirada de los demás es fea. Crece a la sombra de su familia y se convierte, con los años, en una mujer casi invisible. Hasta que un día, alguien con otra mirada descubre su particular belleza, su intenso mundo interior. Entonces, por primera vez, Gertrudis deja atrás la invisibilidad y se permite verse a sí misma.<br/><br/>Adaptación del cuento homónimo de Angélica Gorodischer, "La cámara oscura" es una película intimista que reflexiona sobre los cánones de la belleza, la aceptación y el rechazo. Dirigida por María Victoria Menis, protagonizada por Mirta Bogdasarian, Silvina Bosco, Fernando Armani, y con la participación especial del actor francés Patrick Dell'Isola y el reconocido dibujante Recambole en las animaciones.<br/><br/>Translated from Wikipedia:<br/>At the end of the 19th century, a girl was born on the ironing of a ship and since it is a border zone she can acquire a nationality. Gertrudis grows up in a country house, a member of a Jewish colony in the province of Entre Ríos and becomes a woman who, according to the criteria of those around her, is ugly, and lives always dressed in black, looking down and hiding . Her mother reminds him again and again with different attitudes that she is ugly, that she does not meet expectations; in spite of having a brilliant performance in the school that she attends so that she becomes an insignificant woman, almost transparent, ignored by the others; nevertheless, she does not renounce to see the world that surrounds her with an avid interest for those small signs of beauty that are only perceived if we stop to contemplate them or leave their little pleasures:<br/><br/>Gertrudis marries a widower who happens to be the figure that stands out in the house and is admired by his children. To portray the entire family, her husband León hires a French photographer who had photographed the war, the direct confrontation with the most cruel part of humanity and those heartbreaking scenes had completely changed his way of seeing. In Europe he had begun to participate in the Surrealist movement and had begun to look for new forms of expression. Jean Baptiste arrives at the house, stays there a couple of days and begins to photograph everyone.<br/><br/>Gertrudis refuses everything she can to appear in the photos and hides herself while Leon and his children pose happily. In this context the poses of Leon and his children become for the photographer something absurd, obsolete, and his look seeks to discover something different and finds it in Gertrudis that, with its opacity and silence is much more interesting. He will be the only one who discovers, with another "look", the particular beauty of the protagonist and his intense internal world and in doing so will in turn influence the protagonist. |
