IFFR presents: Videojuego by Dominga Sotomayor

A child plays Wii tennis while his parents divvy up and and pack the furniture. One camera angle, one perspective, one situation, with a strong emotional charge. The child is immersed in the virtual world of the game while the real world stays off-screen.

Dominga Sotomayor (1985, Chile)'s feature film project, De jueves a domingo, participated in the Cannes Cinéfondation Résidence 2010, and was supported by IFFR's Hubert Bals Fund. The film won a Tiger Award in 2012. She directed several short films which received awards worldwide, including a Tiger Shorts Award in 2014 for La isla (2013). Videojuego was part of #IFFR 2010.
