Stein,

A mi también me gustó mucho, por eso lo puse... este video fue hecho por un joven mexicano de 24 años que ganó el premio por mejor cortometraje online en Cannes... se dice mucho que es un plagio porque hay un video español con la misma idea, pero yo ví ese video y no conmueve en cambio éste a mi sí me llegó... no digo que sea la maravilla pero este joven lo hizo todo con un presupuesto de menos de 2500 dólares y creo yo que con ese pequeño presupuesto logró un gran resultado.

Me ha recordado otra frase:
" Dale limosna mujer, que no hay en la vida nada como la pena de ser ciego en Granada", de Francisco Alarcón de Icaza...

Precioso Video Odette!

Muchos besos de allende los mares!

This weekend I went twice to the Royal Academy of Arts to the talks of Mexican Architects.  The first talk on Saturday was by architect Michel Rojkind. It was amazing, I liked very much the friendly and social approach to all of his projects, they are quite innovative and he thinks of people.  He is an excellent story teller and all the public was captured by his talk. He is a people person, and he reflects that in his architecture... the project that impact me the most was the on-site extension of la Cineteca Nacional. I loved this place since I was very young and used to live in Satélite; as I am a film lover remember driving every weekend there. Later I was lucky enough to live in Coyoacan so I travelled there by bike.  I was very impressed by the fact that Rojkind's project involves the whole area of the Cineteca, he includes the Archives in his plan and leaves the old Cineteca building untouched, giving tribute to the history of this old buildi...

A leap of faith

I thought that because during my youth I lived in another country, and it was one of the best experiences in my life. That other country was Germany, and since then I longed for Europe, well I confess I still do… because you should know, England is not Europe. Of course this is my very personal view. I was born in Mexico City, a vibrant and chaotic city. Mexico is a surreal beautiful country. When you are abroad you worth it even more. You might wondered then, why did we decide to leave Mexico?  Well, we decided to leave Mexico because my country was becoming very insecure. It was during president Calderon’s failed drug war. Mexico was so violent that we decided to migrate for the sake of our family.  I have been very lucky to be able to travel a lot during my lifetime. When I was a kid, I was two months in China. It was the China of Mao ...
