American Autumn

Hace días que me llegan globos sonda de American Autumn desde distintas direcciones. El primero viene desde el Facebook de Jordi Labanda, donde me entero que el ilustrador se estrena como director de arte. Investigo y veo que además ha realizado los títulos de crédito y es el productor ejecutivo de esta ópera prima.

Detrás de la cámara está Albert Moya, que estudió arte dramático y colaboró con las diseñadoras emergentes españolas de El Delgado Buil antes de marcharse a Nueva York a estudiar cine. American Autumn será su “primera vez” y lo hace bajo el paraguas de  Le Films Sur Mer, un proyecto audiovisual que ha montado junto a Labanda.

Si lees la sinopsis de pasada: “Durante el transcurso de una cena íntima, dos parejas en sus cuarenta, reciben la inesperada visita de un amigo que pondrá su mundo patas arriba” quizá te parezca un corto más…pero cuando le des al play todo cambiará.

Elias, Pauline, Trevor, Catherine…los protagonistas de este drama son adultos atrapados en cuerpos de niños, o bien adultos que se resisten a dejar ir ese niño que todo tenemos dentro. Una premisa que cambia las reglas de juego y que nos enfrenta a los drama cotidianos de una manera atípica.

Last days I’ve been hearing about American Autumn from different sources. The first one is Jordi Labanda’s Facebook, where I find out that the illustrator will debut as an art director. I make some research and then I know that he has designed the opening credits and besides that he is the executive producer of the short film as well.

Behind the lens we find Albert Moya, who studied acting and was part of the Spanish emerging designer’s duo El Delgado Buil before to leave to New York to study film. American Autumn will be his “first time” and it will be with Le Films Sur Mer, the audiovisual project he has created with Labanda.

If you read the story “ Ober an intimate dinner, two couples in their forties unexpectedely welcome the visit of a friend that will turn their lives upside down.” You should thinks that there is nothing new…but when you play the trailer everything changes.

Elias, Pauline, Trevor, Catherine…the main characters of that melodrama are adults in kid’s bodies, o maybe, adults that resist to grow up. A premise that changes the gaming rules and make us face the daily dramas in an surprising way.
