Film at Lincoln Center | Nicolás Pereda on Lázaro at Night | NYFF62 @filmlinc | Uploaded October 2024 | Updated October 2024, 3 days ago.
Nicolás Pereda discusses Lázaro at Night, an NYFF62 Currents selection, with NYFF programmer Tyler Wilson.
Nicolás Pereda, whose films elegantly balance wry, naturalistic interpersonal comedy and surreal transcendence, returns with a marvelous inquiry into art-making, storytelling, and the fragile bonds of friendship that takes his blend of the theatrical and the mundane to a new level. The film centers on a trio of friends, connected by a writing workshop they attended years earlier. Today, as they navigate romance and infidelity, their bond is further complicated by the fact that they are all auditioning to be in the same low-budget movie. Connected by a complex sound design that occasionally collapses time and space, scenes of absurd mundanity give way to the fantasy of fiction, its triangle of poets, artists, and actors motivated equally by wishful dreaming and comic, everyday neuroses.
