El niño sombra (2018)

A boy is left home alone and sits on a table. He enters a world of his own and begins to play by pretending all sorts of situations. When he gets bored, he starts pretending he is a cat and, with nobody to stop him, wreaks havoc with a book stand. Still unsatisfied, he changes character and decides to pretend he is a bird. This minimalist and whimsical short film is completely devoid of scenery, except for a table set in a limbo, where a dancer interprets the character of the boy and his imaginary adventures. Most of it shot in black and white, it contains a scene in which the boy leaves his imaginary world and brings down an entire collection of books in a bookshelf; as the boy enters this moment in reality the scene turns to color. A silent film, a music score accompanies the actions of the boy.
