Pieles

The first film by Eduardo Casanova, accustomed to directing short films - of excellent qualities - the young director makes a great short in his first feature. Portraying a group of people, where all suffer from some type of deformity, whether physically or psychologically, we have a woman with the anus instead of the mouth, a man who has the dream of cutting his legs to become a mermaid, a prostitute with Skin, instead of the eyes passing through a pedophile man, another who feels attraction to the deformity of others, and even the man who puts his gain ahead of life, "Skins" beats everyone and exposes the human deformity in the most explicit way possible by doing Viewer to reflect on that deformity of character that we all crave. The script that tries to emulate a kind of magnolia of taste I very much doubt - and with 2 hours less - exactly in its duration, with less than an hour and a half of duration, the developments of the characters is completely impaired, we have only a broad idea , Where each character will have its story developed in ten minutes with some interconnections between them, technically, Eduardo Casanova lavishes talent, with an extremely cold photograph and symmetrical angles, his frame remembers names like Wes Anderson, always appealing to the color pink, his Costume is remarkable as its soundtrack, full of Spanish songs that go from this to pop to erudite, its makeup is also great, its perfect rhythm, technically the film really pleases a lot, Casanova had a lot of freedom, better to accompany the young director in his Upcoming work, talent we already have. Finally, "Pieles" is a nice film despite being deplorable, we have the aesthetic symmetry supported the complete bizarre of "extreme cinema" we have a heavy message shown in an even heavier way, we have many problems, it is true, as much performances Weak, little development, and little screen time, we have many great ideas, but little time to develop, but finally, it is a film of cinema and for those who love art.
