Una identidad en absurdo Vol. 1 (2011)

Directed by Guillermo Gómez Álvarez

“A (de)construction by Guillermo Gómez Álvarez”

Documentary · 1h 22m

Guillermo Gómez Álvarez explores the identity politics of Puerto Rico via archival footage from various sources that clash with nine original songs from local independent musicians and a thematic analysis from a psychoanalyst and a historian. From the juxtaposition the absurd becomes coherent and the coherent becomes absurd as Puerto Rican identity is defined and rejected almost simultaneously.
