Some facts:
- Probably my favorite. Very few people "understand it". I just love it.
- NEVER will shoot with Ektrachrome again... way too risky. I wanted the extremely saturated colours that only color reversal film can punch. Didn't work out as I hoped.
- The actor is Manolo Romo. Back then, he was a child. Today, he plays in a succesful Mexican rock band called "Porcelana". He's a daaaamn good guitar player today.
- I made this film being unemployed and having very low self-respect for myself... those were hard times. Probably that's why this is my favourite.
- It took my almost two years to finish this little project... pure sloth and lazyness. Bad filmmaker, bad filmmaker!
- I was dying to experiment with long shots in Super 8mm. Loved it. I'm dying to do it again.
