In Príncipe de Paz (FID 2019), young Mexicans wander between nature and the city, confronted with the enigma of a giant skeleton. Atados los años engullen la terra takes up these motifs and concentrates them in two figures: a young man and a young woman, born from a volcano whose eruption, in the majestic foreground, is announced by the chromatic disturbance of the image. He wanders in the jungle and opens himself to the perception of the senses. She confronts the devastation of the natural world by man, before opening herself to society and compassion. A dialectic of the immense and the intimate, the natural and the social, the everyday and the time of myth: between cosmic enigma and visual splendor, Clemente Castor's cinema advances by leaps and bounds.
