“At any rate, it’s about a father, a father’s reign over destiny. Whether or not this father is terrestrial or has a name concerns us insofar as we may or may not cling to the illusion of clarity, to the ingenuity of reason.” – Adolfo Arrieta
An underground classic from Spanish avant-garde pioneer (and painter) Adolfo Arrieta, Pointilly is an expressive B&W study of a woman’s flight to the city. Permeated by ephemeral flashbacks and a fable-like quality, the film confronts the Oedipal incest taboo through the visual language of dreams.
