¿Cómo va España? 08 / Director: Julio Medem

Chaotic Ana

Ana is a beautiful 18 year old free-spirited girl living in Ibiza. She devotes her passion for life into her naive paintings. One day, Justine, a cosmopolitan patron of the arts, invites Ana to explore her work further by moving to Madrid, where she will live amongst a group of young artists that Justine protects. This is the beginning of a journey that will send Ana to new continents, prompting her to uncover, through hypnosis, her past lives that have crossed centuries of remote myths. Ana will be challenged to break the chain of ancestral violence that lingers in her chaotic soul.
– PRODUCTION NOTES

A daring journey of self-exploration becomes a dizzying exploration of the history of womankind for the young protag of Chaotic Ana, a memorably intense, abstract and unfocused pic from Spain’s most distinctive auteur, Julio Medem. Rangier and more dazzling – visually and conceptually – than anything Medem has tried before
– JONATHAN HOLLAND, VARIETY

With Sex and Lucia and The Lovers of the Arctic Circle, Spanish director Julio Medem fi rmly established his own dreamy, winding plots, suffused with philosophical themes and spiced with a liberal dose of sex. Medem’s work is not to everyone’s taste, but his new fi lm, Chaotic Ana, is carried by imagination and the force of a strong cast.– – The real charm of this fi lm is that it keeps the viewer guessing what strange turn it will take. Or indeed, what it is all about.
