I have written a post of my impressions of the amazing Virtual Reality istallation by director Alejandro G. Iñarritu with cinematographer Emmanuel (“Chivo”) Lubezki, that I saw at the 2017 Cannes Film Festival.

Alejandro and Chivo have previously collaborated on Birdman and The Revenant.

Carne y Arena is presently showing in Los Angeles and Milan.
