Cine de sótano

Al descubrir su amor por el séptimo arte, mi tío instaló una sala de proyección en el sótano, todos los integrantes de la familia la disfrutaron hasta que la situación mutó de entretenida a preocupante. Las ganas de abandonar su espacio de cine eran inversamente proporcionales a su colección de películas; entre más tenía, menos salía. Un día, mi abuela decidió tomar los films y esconderlos "tendrá que adaptarse de nuevo a la sociedad" exclamó. Nunca lo hizo el hombre, murió al poco tiempo, deprimido y confinado. No hace tanto tiempo atrás, encontré la colección escondida en el altillo, la llevé al sótano y no he salido desde entonces. No sé cuánto tiempo ha transcurrido. No me dejaré arrebatar mis films. Tengo una soga colgada estratégicamente. Ya lo sé yo; la abuela planea algo.

Martyrs.

“It's so easy to create a victim, young lady, so easy. You lock someone in a dark room. They begin to suffer. You feed that suffering. Methodically, systematically and coldly. And make it last. Your subject goes through a number of states. After a while, their trauma; that small, easily opened crack, makes them see things that don't exist. “

We start with cutting the ligamentum patella, the ligaments of the kneecaps, so knee extension is no longer possible. Pulling from "B" and "C" the central incisors, lateral incisors and canines from the upper and lower jaws, the lips from "B" and "C," and the anus of "A" and "B," are cut circular along the border between skin and mucosa, the mucus cutaneous zone. Two pedicelated grafts are prepared and lifted from the underlying tissue.

Narrator: If Tom had learned anything... it was that you can't ascribe great cosmic significance to a simple earthly event. Coincidence, that's all anything ever is, nothing more than coincidence... Tom had finally learned, there are no miracles. There's no such thing as fate, nothing is meant to be. He knew, he was sure of it now.

El parír de las artes.

Un día lleno de melancolía, en un ataque de inspiración, la literatura, la pintura, la música, la arquitectura, la escultura, la danza, la fotografía y el teatro hicieron una orgía, y en el vientre de alguna de estas ramas yacía un feto. 

Meses después se descubrió que  de esta combinación nació la manifestación de arte más mágica de todas: el cine.
