IL FUTURO THE FUTURE

TRAILER: 

Bianca e Thomas tornam-se órfãos após a trágica morte dos pais num acidente de carro. Ainda adolescentes, eles se tornam responsáveis por seu próprio futuro e precisam aprender a sobreviver no mundo dos adultos. A vida se complica quando dois amigos da academia de Tomás se instalam na casa dos irmãos sem data para sair. Eles tem um plano: roubar Maciste, um ex ator e Mister Universo que cego, com sua mansão demolida e os músculos flácidos, vai se tornar o herói que estavam precisando.

When her parents die in a tragic car accident, adolescent Bianca’s universe is supended. Entrusted with the care of her younger brother, Tomas, she struggles to hold it together. Life is further complicated when Tomás’s gym-rat friends invite themselves to stay indefinitely. Using Bianca as a lure for a heist they’ve concocted, they convince her to initiate a sexual relationship with an enigmatic blind hermit, Maciste. But as the two spend time together, Bianca unexpectedly finds normalcy and acceptance in the aging B-movie star and former Mr. Universe’s rococo mansion.

Un accidente de carretera: Bianca y su hermano Tomás se quedan huérfanos. Son adolescentes, son vírgenes y están solos en el mundo. Abandonan la escuela e inician un luto oscuro y peligroso, descendiendo al submundo de una gran ciudad. Entonces aparece Maciste, un viejo actor italiano, quien con su mansión derruida y sus músculos fláccidos, se convertirá en el héroe que estaban necesitando.

FILMOGRAFIA DA DIRETORA

DIRECTOR’S FILMOGRAPHY

ALICIA SCHERSON (Chile)

2004               Play

2009               Turistas

2013               Il Futuro

Alicia Scherson was born in Santiago de Chile in 1974. After graduating as a biologist, she studied filmmaking in the Escuela Internacional de Cine y Television and then received a Master of Fine Arts degree from the University of Illinois at Chicago. Her first feature film, Play, was shot in Chile and premiered in 2005 at the Tribeca Film Festival, where it received an award for best director.

NOTAS DE LA DIRECTORA:

Cuando leí “Una Novelita Lumpen” quedé atrapada por dos cosas. Primero, por la voz descarnada y entrañable de Bianca. Una voz de niña-vieja que nos cuenta la historia desde un futuro incierto. Una voz cuya lucidez es tan absoluta que se vuelve capaz de revelar el lado más cómico de lo terrible. Segundo, por su trama. Improbable, retorcida, contemporánea. Una historia construida con deshechos de películas y novelas baratas: una huerfanita convertida en prostituta a merced de un par de encantadores musculosos. Un actor ciego que guarda un tesoro en una caja fuerte. Dos chicos pobres que sueñan con el futuro.

La película, como la novela, ocurre en la Roma de hoy. Los huérfanos chilenos quedan abandonados a su suerte en la periferia de esa ciudad imposible, en los márgenes de la decadencia europea. Asi comienzan un extraño viaje de luto , una aventura torpe, peligrosa y algo ridícula.

La película podría ser también un episodio atípico en la saga de Hércules, uno en el que el héroe está desmejorado y la chica indefensa tiene que encontrar por si sola la salida. Una salida poco triunfal quizás, pero una que le permite sobrevivir y prepararse para una nueva aventura.
