All The Rest Is Noise, by Nicolás Pereda | Mexico | 2026 | 71’
Tere’s house has plants, a unique atmosphere, and is the ideal setting for the first television interview given by Rosa, a friend of the host and a prominent musician. Tere’s daughter, also an artist, joins the pair, and a long, ironic debate about hypocrisy in the art world ensues. Add to this the power outages, the persistent barking of a neighbor’s dog, and other comical and insistent sounds, and you have the perfect recipe for an ode to everyday life as the raw material par excellence.
