Ceremonia Sagrada

Ceremonia Sagrada

Two adult siblings, confined to their childhood home, live under the lingering presence of their parents, whose memory is mirrored in a portrait on the wall. They strive to preserve their existence through a “sacred ceremony” of nourishment and cleansing. Trapped in the family’s gilded cage, they become both inmates and bathers, with heightened senses that console and are consoled, faithful to rituals that have vanished from modern times, where everyone is violated by the rush of time. In a classic urban house, marked by decay, they tend to each other like young mammals in the wild— with love, with exposure, with violence, frustration, and shame.
