If you loved La Ciénaga, try Zama
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Lucrecia Martel, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to La Ciénaga, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Zama is
A career stuck in bureaucratic purgatory meets gothic paranoia over colonial decay. A disgraced 18th-century Spanish officer waits endlessly for reassignment, trapped between mounting social slights and his own unraveling. The slow rot of empire becomes his mirror.
