El retratar la vida de Mekas y el retratarse en la vida de Varda

Jonas Mekas and Agnes Varda are my mentors, they inspired me to create my own movement, But they are both different to a certain point. And although this small reflection on my mentors is brief, I know that they will continue to inspire future filmmakers. Because something magical that I still see in cinema is that It's not the prizes, nor the money It is the ability that one as a director has to inspire and be inspired by another director. And even though the world is very screwed, there is only one thing left to do: keep filming.
