A Problem Like Mishima
By Andrew Tracy

WAITING FOR SANCHO is an ontological investigation into a place where cinema becomes something more than cinema. Filmed in high-definition colour over five days in the Canary Islands of Fuerteventura and Tenerife, WAITING FOR SANCHO is a kind of experimental “making of” the critically acclaimed EL CANT DELS OCELLS (BIRDSONG/ LE CHANT DES OISEAUX). A particular take on the Biblical story of The Three Kings en route to the baby Jesus, EL CANT DELS OCELLS premiered at the Quinzaine des Realisateurs at Cannes 2008.
