Ida (2022)

An ill man embarks on a journey of no return. A filmmaker proposes to film his journey. This is the result. "I'm going to start by the end. I met Ignacio at a literature workshop. We both pursued different objectives. He went there to improve a script for a movie; I went to spend some time connecting with what I had been wanting to do for all my life, even though it was too late: writing. We got on well. I don't know why, but there's something of him that reminds me of myself. Of my 30-year-old self. When I told him about this trip, when I told him it was a one-way trip, he suggested filming my testament. I took offense. I felt it as a breach of trust. But some days later, I called him and told him I accepted. He brought me a cell phone and told me to film whatever I wanted and to send it to him. He would take care of the rest."
