El muro

Plot: Leopoldo Torre Nilsson, at the age of 22, made his directorial debut with this little-known auteur short film, based on one of his short stories, which contains the seeds he would develop in future works: loneliness, the conflicts and morals of society at that time, its loss of identity, and literary themes. Although Torre Nilsson himself used to define "The Wall" as "a sin of youth," it already reveals a different kind of cinema, with a certain expressionist touch, a reflection of his literary restlessness and an early and natural rejection of the commercial vision of cinema at that time, a rejection he would maintain throughout his career, in which he would crash against another wall, that of censorship, more than he would have liked
