“El Gran Movimiento” is a captivating urban symphony about a unique metropolis. Using original cinematic language, Kiro Russo, as the Dziga Vertov of the Andean highlands, dives deep into the hidden worlds of La Paz, creating a hypnotic trip that is both spiritual and metaphysical and resembles a kind of hallucinogenic critique of capitalism.
BO/QA/FR/CH 2021, 85 minutes, original language with English subtitles. Directed by Kiro Russo.
