Love Fantasy, My Beautiful Girl Mari
A Trailer For Surreal Dark Comedy LA VIDA ME MATA

Something’s happening in Chile. Martial artist Marko Zaror just wowed ‘em at Fantastic Fest, where Mirage Man took the audience award, Nicolas Lopez’ superhero film Santos remains hotly anticipated and now here comes multi-talented artist Sebastián Silva’s first foray into film with the darkly comic La Vida Me Mata. Here’s the synopsis lifted from the Sanfic Festival website:
Sebastián Silva, a versatile and restless artist –painter, designer, creative editor, composer and singer of the CHC band¬–, makes his debut in the fiction full-length film with this movie. The main character is Gaspar, a depressive cameraman, who has not been able overcome his older brother’s death. Everything what surrounds him fuels his melancholy, and leads him to isolation: the ridiculous and pretentious experimental short film, in which he is collaborating at the services of an egocentric actress; his home, where only his sister Margarita cares about the family, whose other members are an agonizing grandfather and an almost imperceptible mother. When Gaspar is seriously thinking about suicide, he meets by chance Alvaro, an eccentric, childish and unprejudiced young man, whose favorite topic is death, and in whom the cameraman believes his brother is reincarnated.
The trailer for this is simply stellar with brilliant use of color - I love how the bad short film is treated as more real than real life - and some deliciously surprising fantasy touches. Yes, please.
