Cuando hablamos de misterios y leyendas, uno de los temas de los que se suele hablar es de la supervivencia de los pasajeros del avión que se estrelló en la cordillera de los Andes que recurrieron al canibalismo para no morir durante más de 70 días (más de dos meses) que estuvieron localizados y dados por muertos. Recientemente se ha estrenado una nueva película que narra la tragedia y de las que os traigo esta reseña. “La sociedad de la nieve”: una película que conmueve y emociona “La sociedad de la nieve” es la última película del director español J.A. Bayona, basada en el libro homónimo de Pablo Vierci, que narra la historia real de los supervivientes del accidente aéreo de los Andes en 1972. La película, que se estrenó en los cines de Uruguay y España en diciembre de 2023, y que se puede ver en Netflix desde el 4 de enero de 2024, ha recibido el aplauso de la crítica y del público, así como numerosas nominaciones y premios, entre ellos el de Mejor Película Internacional en los Globos de Oro y en los Premios Goya. La película aborda uno de los relatos de supervivencia más conocidos y conmovedores del siglo XX, el de un grupo de jóvenes deportistas uruguayos que viajaban a Chile para disputar un partido de rugby, y que se vieron obligados a enfrentarse a las condiciones más extremas tras el choque de su avión en un glaciar a más de 4.000 metros de altura. Durante 72 días, los 29 supervivientes tuvieron que luchar contra el frío, el hambre, las heridas, las avalanchas, la soledad y la desesperación, recurriendo a medidas impensables como alimentarse de los cadáveres de sus compañeros fallecidos. Sin embargo, también demostraron una enorme solidaridad, fe, esperanza y voluntad de vivir, que les permitió resistir hasta que dos de ellos, Nando Parrado y Roberto Canessa, lograron cruzar las montañas y encontrar ayuda. Bayona, que se ha consolidado como uno de los cineastas más exitosos y versátiles de su generación, tras dirigir películas como “El orfanato”, “Lo imposible” y “Un monstruo viene a verme”, ha sabido plasmar con maestría y sensibilidad esta epopeya humana, que ya había sido llevada al cine en 1993 por Frank Marshall con el título de “¡Viven!”. Sin embargo, a diferencia de aquella versión, que se centraba más en el aspecto aventurero y espectacular de la historia, Bayona ha optado por una aproximación más íntima y profunda, que da voz y rostro a todos los protagonistas de “la sociedad de la nieve”, tanto a los que sobrevivieron como a los que murieron. Para ello, se ha basado en el libro de Vierci, que recoge los testimonios de los 16 supervivientes y de las familias de los 29 fallecidos, y que ofrece una visión más completa y compleja de lo que ocurrió en aquellos días. La película cuenta con un reparto de actores uruguayos y argentinos, encabezado por Enzo Vogrincic, que interpreta a Numa Turcatti, el narrador de la historia, y por Agustín Pardella, que da vida a Nando Parrado, el líder de la expedición. Ambos realizan unas actuaciones sobresalientes, que transmiten la fuerza, el dolor y la humanidad de sus personajes. El resto del elenco también brilla con luz propia, destacando Andy Pruss como Roy Harley, Matías Recalt como Roberto Canessa, Juan Pablo Raba como Javier Methol, y María Valverde como Susana Parrado, entre otros. La música de Michael Giacchino, la fotografía de Pedro Luque y la dirección artística de Eugenio Caballero contribuyen a crear una atmósfera envolvente y emotiva, que capta la belleza y la crueldad de los paisajes andinos. “La sociedad de la nieve” es una película que no deja indiferente a nadie, que conmueve y emociona, que invita a reflexionar sobre el valor de la vida, el sentido de la muerte, el poder de la amistad, el límite de la ética, el papel de la fe y la capacidad de superación del ser humano. Es, en definitiva, una obra maestra del cine español, que rinde homenaje a los héroes de los Andes, y que merece ser vista y recordada.

Nos metimos (o por lo menos lo intentamos) a la mente del director mexicano ganador del Oscar, Alejandro González Iñárritu para gozar sobre lo surrealista que es su nueva película. Y para ello, nos acompañó otro ganador del Oscar, Eugenio Caballero, diseñador de producción de “Bardo”.
On this episode, I spoke to production designer Eugenio Caballero about his work on Bardo. Caballero is an Oscar winner for Pan's Labyrinth. He was also nominated for Roma. In addition Caballero is a BAFTA Film Award nominee for Roma and Pan's Labyrinth and a 3x ADG nominee (where he is also a 1x winner). Bardo: False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths was directed and written by Alejandro Iñárritu.
Roma discussion with writer/director/producer Alfonso Cuarón, production designer Eugenio Caballero, producer Gabriela Rodriguez, re-recording mixer Skip Lievsay, and actors Marina de Tavira and Yalitza Aparicio on November 4, 2018 at the Samuel Goldwyn Theater. Moderated by John Horn.
En este episodio se habla de dos oficios complementarios en el cine: la dirección de arte y la actuación. Antonia Zegers es una de las actrices chilenas más reconocidas dentro y fuera de su país. Además de su trabajo en teatro y televisión, ha participado en más de una quincena de largometrajes dirigidos por autores locales como Pablo Larraín, Marcela Said, Sebastián Leilo y Dominga Sotomayor. Una permanente pugna entre luz y oscuridad ha caracterizado los personajes más memorables de su filmografía, que ha interpretado con entrega y osadía. Por otro lado, Eugenio Caballero es hoy uno de los referentes del diseño de producción. Alfonso Cuarón, Sebastián Cordero, Fernando Eimbcke, Jim Jarmusch y Alejandro González Iñárritu conforman parte de la lista de directores con los que ha trabajado y dan cuenta de la amplia riqueza de registros de este creador, que también ha incursionado en el diseño para piezas museográficas, de teatro y circo.En 2006 obtuvo un premio Oscar por su trabajo en la creación de los monstruos y los fantásticos escenarios de El laberinto del fauno, de Guillermo Del Toro.La amistad entre Antonia y Eugenio, fundada en el cariño y la admiración mutua, los lleva a hablar en este espacio con sinceridad y confianza de las experiencias que ambos han acumulado a lo largo de más de dos décadas de trabajo en sus respectivos oficios.

Un especialista en cine, tres jóvenes críticos y un invitado comparten opiniones sobre los estrenos de la semana.
Describing a new Cirque du Soleil show is a little like describing a dream while still half asleep. Talking about ‘Luzia,’ appropriately subtitled “A Waking Dream of Mexico,” is roughly that difficult. Presented through January 29 under the company’s conspicuously festive big-top tent in the parking lot of San Francisco’s AT&T Park, ‘Luzia,’ directed by Daniele Finzi Pasca, is a rain-drenched love-letter to the vast, colorful culture of Mexico. Though dazzling throughout, the luxurious show succeeds especially well in the first of its two spectacular acts, as a luck-challenged traveller—played by the acclaimed clown Eric Fool Koller—tries against odds to get … well, we’re not sure till the end where he’s so desperate to get to, though he clearly would appreciate a nice cool drink of water along the way. Koller is first seen falling from an airplane, dangling downward past birds and clouds as he descends from the towering heights of the tent, improvising a safe landing after losing his parachute. Throughout the rest of the show, our plucky wanderer finds himself stumbling in-and-out of various mind-boggling landscapes and experiences, first encountering a stunning Monarch butterfly with enormous puppeteer-powered wings, dance-flying alongside a remarkable mechanical horse, running in slow motion on a series of speeding-and-slowing treadmills. Then there are the acrobatic hummingbirds, impossibly bouncing their way through a series of ever-rising hoops; a Tarzan-like acrobat dancing in-and-out of a pool of blue water, as a friendly jaguar prowls and frolics on the periphery; a Mexican wrestler, who achieves the ultimate dream of schoolyard children, on a massive swing that, in one heart-stopping moment, actually takes its rider all the way around; there’s a crew of filmmakers who take over the stage to make a movie in which a classic circus strongman climbs higher and higher on stacks of chairs. I can’t even begin to describe the dancing cacti, but do be warned, because they are as crudely sexy as they are delightfully silly. Eventually, the show’s amazing sights and stirring sounds – the latter provided by a guitar-playing band of crocodiles and a power-voiced chanteuse – all start to blend and overlap in a kind of uniquely Cirque du Soleil sensory overload. As stunning as the visuals are, nothing prepares us for the wall of rain that routinely falls across the stage, drenching its performers, which include a team of women dancing, twirling, and spinning inside of enormous hoops, and a pair of break-dancing soccer players who commit act of gravity-defying glee using an ever moving soccer ball. Then, in one jaw-dropping sequence, that sheet of rain becomes the show itself, at first dividing itself into two, then raining in falling patterns to the left and then the right, and finally transforming itself into a magical canvas, dropping its raindrops in the patterns of fish and birds, butterflies, and other visions. I know it was done with computer-timed releases of water, but knowing that doesn’t detract from the utter amazement of the effect. Perfectly timed to the beats of pulsing, soul-reaching music, the magnificent rain sequence was easily one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen on stage. With a rotating, ever changing set by Eugenio Caballero — who won an Oscar for his work on the sublime ‘Pan’s Labyrinth — ‘Luzia’ reaches past dreams and beyond logic to create a world you might not want to leave. And might just want to go back and experience again. Luzia runs through January 29 at AT&T Park. Visit CirqueduSoleil.com/luzia for more details.
