Francisco Rojas @dogstarfran.bsky.social · 20/04/2025RIP Tomonari Nishikawa. One of the great filmmakers from these century has passed away. Let's remember his excellent work and the kind human he was. A tragedy for cinema, but most importantly, for his family. 062

Francisco Rojas @dogstarfran.bsky.social · 14/02/2025Truth be told, these have all been *around* for YEARS (yes, even The Extravagant Shadows). I'm just as surprised though to see they finally got leaked. 000
Francisco Rojas @dogstarfran.bsky.social · 14/02/2025Nunca reviso bluesky y justo hoy me metí jaja. Estoy sorprendido porque diría que te coloqué con nombre y apellido en la transcripción. Voy a hablar con Iván para colocarte como corresponde. 110
Francisco Rojas @dogstarfran.bsky.social · 30/01/2025A couple of articles/text in which I worked on have just been published: - David Gatten's talk at Universidad de Santiago de Chile: www.lafuga.cl/charla-david... + - My interview with David: www.lafuga.cl/david-gatten...

Francisco Rojas @dogstarfran.bsky.social · 04/01/2025Quizás entra en los mismos juegos de prensa que Ruben Ostlund pero al menos Serra si hace películas interesantes. Y con Tardes de Soledad sentí que hizo su obra más sincera, aunque seguramente ello molesta mucho considerando el tema que buscó para ésta película en cuestión. 000
Francisco Rojas @dogstarfran.bsky.social · 04/01/2025Lo único que he visto constantemente es el odio de los cinéfilos españoles hacia él, pero es bastante entendible, Serra siempre ha sido un payaso, un personaje aparte, le gusta ser polémico. Quizás ni siquiera existe fuera de sus películas o son dos personas completamente diferentes. 100

Francisco Rojas @dogstarfran.bsky.social · 03/01/2025In a sane world, Carroll Gardens would be a safe bet to be part of the experimental canon. I had the luxury of having my A Sense of Nothing join Careless Passage by the great Jerome Hiler at Houston last year. And there's Malena Szlam, my friends Leo Pirondi & Max Luc Proctor among many others. 120
Francisco Rojas @dogstarfran.bsky.social · 03/01/2025I'm very happy and thankful to have a film of mine included once again in @msicism.bsky.social's list of Experimental Films of the year (2024). I never take for granted to have my work be "considered", specially as a digital filmmaker. Many friends and heroes are here. Truly an honor. 110
