About Federico

I worked as a musician and actor until I turned 20, when I traveled and started studying music in Europe. While living in England, I began discovering the Japanese culture. In 2001, I moved to Tokyo, where I' ve been working as an actor and music composer. In 2009, I started to produce and direct short films, which then led to the creation of the production company “Fukahire Films”, now based in Buenos Aires. Among the movies I made, there are "Metromucho" (documentary), "Open Eyes" (short) and "Ishinomaki rock 'n roll city" (documentary)

Oscar also has flashbacks to his childhood when trauma upends the siblings. Oscar's drug-fed hallucinations alter Tokyo's already-disconcerting nights, and after the police shoot him, he can float above and look down: on his sister's sorrow, on the rooms of a love hotel, and on life at even a molecular level. The spectrum's colors can be beautiful; it's people's colorless lives that can be ugly. And what of afterlife, is there more than a void? Written by <jhailey@hotmail.com>
