The Exact Shape of The Islands

This film intertwines archive and found footage to reflect on the Falklands War, also known as the Malvinas conflict, from the perspective of someone who suffered a personal loss tied to the events of 1982. Julieta's journey, which spans two trips in 2006 and 2010, reveals her quest for understanding and renewal as she navigates the complexities of her past.

The documentary is notable for its use of sound and visual landscapes, which evoke the emotional weight of Julieta's experiences and the broader historical context. By bridging the gap between public history and private grief, the film presents a compelling narrative that resonates with viewers interested in Argentine cinema and the impact of war on personal identity.
