Cortometraje : «El Infiernillo».

Abstract

The short film "El infiernillo" is an audiovisual project of genre fiction, part of the quest to tell a story of torture in a time of dictatorship and abuse, with characters related to corrupt policies that lead the country. Based on these issues, we create disturbing characters, in this case rats have taken power, using violence as the main weapon, making us reflect on an alternative existence, in which we sometimes had to live in a series of physical and psychological traumas. The short film has features based on the seventh circle of hell, from Dante Alighieri's divine comedy. The seventh circle of Hell, where Virgil calls a huge silhouette that comes flying from the sky. It's about the Gerion monster. While Virgil dialogues with the spawn, Dante does so with those convicted who are there, for having been violent against art or work, that is, the usurers. They carry on the neck a plot with the heraldic distinctive of their respective family and suffer even the unspeakable by the terraces and the flames that surround them (Diego, 2012). As a recurring element we use the figure of fire that accompanies the project in the visual and sound part, both in the photographic proposal and in the sound design.
