Man: Sometimes in the night I lose my mind (2011) This work was part of the project ?Between Iloca and Dichato.? It tried to capture, by means of a trip, the marginal and unmediated consequences of the Chilean Tsunami, one year later. It´s a choral story of the experience from interviews with people who witnessed the wave. The video shows ideas, abstractions and derivations of what happened that night, putting the emphasis on the paradoxical perception of the people; between humor and tragedy. A fragmented narrative emerges naturally from the memory pieces of the people.
