Espejos Rotos
Daniel Cortés / 2025 / 70 min.
In the life of Emely Vargas, diva of Colombian silent cinema, silence hides forgotten secrets; however, in all silence, the presence of the unspoken vibrates ceaselessly.
In every story, as in every past, silence is the guardian of secrets. It protects what must not be revealed, whether out of fear or shame. Sometimes, silence takes root until it becomes habit, but every secret always pulsates like a ghost: it is present even in its absence. Emely Vargas was a forgotten diva of Colombian silent cinema, surrounded by the intrigue of an erased past. Today, her story emerges among scattered archives and blurry presences, diffuse figures still tied to her name.
Following the screening, a conversation will take place with the film’s director, Daniel Cortés.
The screening of ‘Espejos rotos’ takes place within the framework of the MAMUT audiovisual memory festival.
