Estela

About This Movie

So, 'Estela' is an intriguing piece—definitely not your mainstream fare. The animation style is pretty unique, with Amat's threads weaving through the projector frames, giving it this tactile quality that’s hard to shake off. You can kinda see echoes of Brakhage's avant-garde vibe, but it has its own pulse too. The pacing is contemplative; it invites you to linger on images, almost like a visual poem. Themes of connection and memory are woven throughout, creating a haunting atmosphere that stays with you. It’s the kind of film that makes you think about how we perceive animated stories. There's a depth here, layers to unpack over multiple viewings. Worth diving into, for sure.
