In his new cinematic adventure, Raúl Perrone makes a new incursion into the Japanese out of Ituzaingó in order to shape the variations of a story that revolves around a woman who cuts dead people’s hair, a samurai with an intolerable mission, a nosy burglar, a feudal lord on the verge of insanity and a giant metal fish. The film is freely inspired in the original version of Rashomon –written by Ryūnosuke Akutagawa– and, as usual in his filmography since P3ND3JO5 (2013), Perrone blends different elements from classical film; in this case, visible ghosts from Kurosawa’s cinema and certain aspects of Japan’s traditional culture melt with nightmarish distortions and machinistical irruptions, typical of a future that may never come. “The avant-garde is in the past” he once said in an interview. In his reimagining of film history, Perrone again finds an inexhaustible field of expression.

About the intense and complex relationship between writer Horacio Quiroga and the bold poet Alfonsina Storni, a powerful female voice fighting for her independence in a male-dominated world. Through excerpts from their letters and poems, the film intertwines their lives.

In a world where technological progress is conceived as an arrow pointing forward, why do some people insist on continuing to work with equipment others refer to as obsolete? Analog Thinking answers that question by documenting the meticulous work of those who choose that path. The screen becomes filled with wonderful objects—optical toys, cameras, projectors, film stock cans, moviolas… And the testimonies from those creators invite us to discover a universe that has a lot to do with both craftsmanship and the collective experience—an instance of thinking with your hands that is only possible with curiosity and patience. And among the words, practices and artifacts, Analog Thinking also saves a place for the images that are born from all of that. And it reminds us that, even in this digital age, they still have a lot to teach us about waiting and making mistakes, surprise and beauty.

Four friends live together in an abandoned house, wearied by the tedium of knowing that their lives will be tomorrow the same as today, a year from now the same as tomorrow, a century from now the same as a year from now. Being eternal was their sentence.
