Mi primera vez..., quiero decir,...

El primer cortometraje que escribo, dirijo, produzco e interpreto, se titula:

"Más de lo mismo"

Short film "More are the same"

La historia, sinopsis

El personaje central de la historia es un ejecutivo que ha ido dejando lo mejor de su vida al servicio de su empresa, para lograr los objetivos de ésta y los suyos propios pero...

Un día llega el estrés a su máximo nivel y lo deja todo
en una huida alocada e improvisada hasta llegar al mar, una pequeña cala que el destino pone en su camino. Allí pasa un tiempo tan feliz que cree que será para siempre pero…, otra vez la dura realidad: todo y todos han seguido el mismo camino que él, convirtiendo aquel nuevo paraíso en el infierno de todos los días. O sea, más de lo mismo.
Así que, una de dos, o se acomoda al mundanal ruido o a seguir su huída.

Synopsis
     
The main character of the story is an executive who has given the best of his life in the service of his company, in order to achieve its objectives and his own as well but, his stress, caused as much by the inherent responsibilities of his position as by the suffocation he felt from his relatives and the people of the city itself that imprisoned him, was always right under the surface. 

That is how he left everything to begin his rash and improvised escape trying to leave the world he knew behind and lose himself in some place where tranquility is the standard of life.  Finally, after a lengthy run he found it at sea, in a small cove that fate put in his path.  There he spent a period so happy that he thought would last forever until…everything and everyone followed the same path as he had, converting his new paradise in his everyday hell.  In other words: more of the same.
            So, he was left with two options, he could adapt to the noise of the world, or flight is his destiny.

El relato filmográfico

Se inicia con una serie de planos en la oficina del personaje afrontando los problemas diarios, para continuar en una calle céntrica de la ciudad cuando se dirige a resolver un asunto. Es ahí, ante el agobio de los transeúntes y ruidos, dónde inicia su alocada huida, que le llevará por las calles de la ciudad, carreteras, caminos y montañas hasta llegar al mar. Allí empieza a sentir y vivir la paz y tranquilidad que buscaba hasta que un buen día le despiertan con un pelotazo en la cabeza unos juguetones niños. Toda la ciudad, se ha trasladado hasta allí para fastidiarle la vida. Así es que no le queda más que…huir de nuevo, sí, pero ¿a dónde?, porque, ya se sabe que,

Vayas donde vayas no hallarás sino

Más de lo mismo

Así que ¡relájate y disfruta! Si puedes, claro.

The scenes

It begins with a series of shots at the office of the main character facing his daily problems, it continues on one of the main streets of the city where he addresses a solution to his problems.  It is there, as a result of being overwhelmed by passer-bys, where he begins his crazy escape which takes him through the streets of the city, highways, roads and mountains until he reaches the sea.  There he begins to feel and live the peace and tranquility that he was looking for until one day a few playful children wake him up with a blow to the head from their beach ball.  The entire city had moved there to ruin his life.  So he had no other choice but to…escape again, yes, but… to where?, because as the saying goes,

It doesn’t matter where you go you’ll find nothing but

More of the same

So relax and enjoy! If you can, that is.
