Composed of fragments of eyes, lights, shadows and gestures, Amer delves into the life of Ana, always halfway between the real and the imaginary. Inspired by the expressionistic masterworks of Mario Bava and Dario Argento, it communicates the ecstatic possibilities of a cinema in which form itself is content.
