Fernando Arrabal, was co-founder of the Panic Movement with Alejandro Jodorowski and this film owes much to that style. However where his more famous collaborator's work is unapologetically trippy, Arrabal's films and plays use the same chaotic and extreme language to serve a social conscience of sorts.https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/on/film/926https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/on/film/849Two Russian-speaking ghosts leave the Sonar Music Festival, along the pilgrim path to Santiago de Compostela then on to Finisterre: the end of the world, to seek rebirth.

The artist follows old uncle Lung Neaw with a 16mm camera during his daily routines.

Set in Suriname and shot almost entirely with 16mm steadicam, in thirteen extended ten-minute shots it follows two brothers as they trek from Paramaribo to rainforest villages of the Maroons.
