overthere: Part I
For about a dozen years, Lizama has traveled to southern Chile during the summer, mainly between the cities of Valdivia and Osorno. Years of observing birds and their collective movements, trees and their swaying, the sea and its rhythm, the rain and its whisper, the mist that turns into fog and the boats that shatter the calm. Memories and lessons embedded in cinematic time, of someone who yesterday embarked on the journey as a stranger and today does so to reach the family home. Starting from a recognizable world, we enter a more dazzling and abstract one, playing with the pixels in the frame. Recorded and (mostly) edited on a cell phone.

overthere: Part II
From the sea that invades the frame at the end of the previous installment, we move towards an upside-down glitched world that struggles between form and essence. The city shapes battles nature in a back-and-forth that seeks light within the profound darkness, giving birth to a new way of seeing; the camera transforms the present into an instantaneous memory. Recorded and (mostly) edited on a cell phone. Part II of the "overthere" project, a saga about the relation of the digital pixel with the natural world.
