Open-Pit

Open-Pit (Spanish: Cielo abierto) is a 2023 Peruvian-French experimental docudrama film directed, written, co-produced and co-edited by Felipe Esparza Pérez in his directorial debut. It is about a father and son separated by the death of the wife/mother whose paths will cross again.

A Peruvian father labours patiently, chipping at the white volcanic stone that forms an extraordinary landscape. His son is part of the modern world: he uses cameras and drones in order to create the digital model of a church on a computer. Separated by the mysterious death of the wife/mother figure in the family, these men do not connect. And yet their paths cross in a ghostly manner, as do their professions: each in their own way works with textures and volumes, sensations and perceptions.

Open-Pit had its world premiere on January 26, 2023, at the 52nd International Film Festival Rotterdam as part of the Bright Future section, then screened on April 22, 2023, at the 45th Moscow International Film Festival, on August 17, 2023, at the 27th Lima Film Festival, on September 2, 2023, at the Cinemancia Metropolitan Film Festival, on October 6, 2023, at the 52nd Festival du nouveau cinéma and on November 26, 2023, at the 41st Torino Film Festival.
