Puebla Inaudible Symphony

2010-10-10 es 67m
Documentary
Five AM, the streets still empty; Puebla seems like a ghost town. Office buildings wait in silence, factories lie in apparent quiet, churches closed, machines asleep, stores have their shutters down—until like an alarm clock, underscoring the city's deep religiosity, the bell towers ring out as if answering one another, waking the people. The symphony begins. A contemporary portrait of Puebla, contrasting modern development with its heritage and the everyday lives of its inhabitants. Inspired by avant-garde film theories, such as the urban symphonies of Vertov and Ruttmann, the film captures the essence moving forwards. This documentary aims to show the daily life of a city that grows every day as it pursues its vision of modernity, gradually forgets its colonial past and discards what no longer fits into new models of life in Poblano society.
