Director’s note:
“Marisol is an observational documentary trying to look into the father-daughter relationship during the grieving process and the childish need to create a fantasy world even where very few things can be inspirational. The relationship between the author and the protagonists has been created throughout a year of mutual trust and understanding and it shaped the way the film looks now. Synthesizing everyday life into a family portrait where the cultural symbolic universe of the family brings the narration on a next level of “reality”.”
