Ojitos mentirosos

Elena Duque | Spain | 2024 | 6' |

| IFFR 2024

Ojitos mentirosos, the latest work from Elena Duque, takes us to Madrid, where trompe-l’œil is used in both modern and classical architecture. But what is cinema if not an instrument to deceive the eye? In an elegant game of reflections and details, Elena Duque uses her surroundings and the unique texture of 8mm to pay tribute to the magic of film.

– Rebecca De Pas
