LA BESTIA (THE BEAST)  

2015, Bolivia/Argentina

Kiro Russo

In 1538, a human wrapped in furs braves a snow-covered mountain environment. It is Inca messenger Sisco. It seems to be a specific mission that leads him through the wide steppe and mountain landscape. The only living creature visible for miles around, he crosses impressive vistas in clear, digital black-and-white style. Kiro Russo embraces the theme of the seeker in nature as well as Bolivia’s historic heritage – a subject that he seamlessly continues in his subsequent feature film debut VIEJO CALAVERA.

Eine einsame Figur sitzt auf einem felsigen, schneebedeckten Berghang unter einem wolkenverhangenen, grauen Himmel. Das Bild ist in Schwarz-Weiß gehalten und schafft eine stimmungsvolle, dramatische Atmosphäre.
