Description
 
Mexican filmmaker Juan Carlos Rulfo expanded his award-winning short El Abuelo Cheno y Otras Historias into this captivating documentary about his legendary father, poet and novelist Juan Rulfo. The director abandons the conventional approach to biographical film in favor of an artful reflection on the passage of time. He focuses on how the years have carved a lifetime of experience into the worn features of his elderly interview subjects, which include members of his family and a host of writers from his father's generation--Juan Jose Arreola, Manuel Cosio, and the late Jaime Sabines. Winner of Ariel Awards for Best First Work, Cinematography, Editing, and Sound. In Spanish with English subtitles.
