The theme of this movie it's so devastating, but it finds the way to approach it in a very sober way. Where the voices, narrations and silences are the true protagonists. Because it's through them all the emotions and feelings emerge.
You can feel some literature core that makes you feel sometimes you're reading a book, instead of being watching a docummetary. Well, with the words narrated you can imagine a fantastic and poetic universe that contrasts a lot with the captured reality.
According with this soberness, the absence of music and dramatic sequences give enough space to show that deep emotions can be reached trough pure narration and character voices. With testimonies and stories that touch the heart.
The empathy and solidarity with which the four characters get near to the testimonies and stories told, and also the way they get morally affected because all the tragedies locals went through, sends a powerful and memorable message; the importance of memory and past, and how these keep us alive through time when shared with others.
