Description
A choir of creatures introduces a world delicately constructed by fantasy, mystery, and magical realism in Francisca Alegría's poignant and stunning debut feature. It begins in a river in the south of Chile where fish are dying due to pollution from a nearby factory. Amid their floating bodies, long-deceased Magdalena bubbles up to the surface gasping for air, bringing with her old wounds and a wave of family secrets. The shocking return sends her widowed husband into turmoil and prompts their daughter Cecilia to return home to the family's dairy farm with her children. Magdalena's presence reverberates among her family, instigating fits of laughter and despair in equal measure with all but Cecilia's eldest child, who finds much-needed comfort in their grandmother's love and unconditional understanding during a time of transition. A lyrical rumination on family, nature, renewal, and resurrection, The Cow Who Sang A Song Into The Future is an ambitious proposal for acceptance and healing, suggesting that the dead return when they are most needed.
