Program Note
Eva (Daniela Marin Navarro), a sixteen-year-old girl, is confused as her parents
divorce. She lives with her mother, a little sister, and a cat, but her heart often clings
onto her father, Martin (Reinaldo Amien Gutierrez). She desperately wants to move
in with him, but her middle-aged artist father doesn’t seem to be able to afford it. Eva
tries to be around him exploring the world of adults with beer, cigarettes, and sex.
A winner of three prizes (Best Director, Best Main Actress, Best Main Actor) at the
Locarno International Film Festival this year, this film portrays the attachment between
a father and a daughter. It is impressive to see how the actors wonderfully portray the
impulsive and unreasonable characters. It is also impressive to see how the director
unexpectedly places characters in the heedless scenery of San Jose, Costa Rica, and
how he uses dreams and poems as symbolic devices. The title comes from Martin’s
poem, I Have Electric Dreams. The wild voices screaming for love are very vivid. This
film is a directorial debut feature of Valentina Maurel. (LEE Juhyun)
