Exvotos

Running time: 16'

Exvotos
Production: Spain 2014

Exvotos chases an intimate approximation to the popular devotion, reflecting on the paradox of the search of security through objects. Fluctuating between sacred and profane spaces as the museum, the church or the cemetery (sometimes generating confusion among them) the film-essay generates reflections on the image and its potential focusing on the votive offerings.
