David Oubiña proposes to the reader to think of the cinema no longer as a device of representation, but as a machine capable of perceiving the limits of the experience, where the cinematographic images lose their character of transparency to delve into the dilemmas and tensions of the real. In this book, death will be thought of as mass annihilation or as an accident, individual and fortuitous. Both figures, inverted and complementary, are reviewed by the author in two short essays that pass through the films Shoah (Claude Lanzmann, 1985) and Ugetsu (Kenji Mizoguchi, 1953). Death and war are two topics brought together to display reflections on the failure of representation, on images that show little, almost nothing, but that nevertheless open to the possibility of continuing to expose, where the real is not caught.
