“LA FOTOGRAFÍA” directed by Enrique Corrales

What did Enrique  Corrales say about his film?

The picture addresses not only the social pressures faced by LGBTQ+ communities but also how these patterns affect everyone in our society, including those who perpetuate oppression. For a long time, I have observed that society imposes rigid standards of "normalcy" that exclude many, especially gay people.

However, as I delve deeper into this issue, I have also come to the conclusion that the oppressors are, in turn, victims of a system that demands they meet unattainable ideals of perfection, beauty, power, and correctness. This duality is fundamental to understanding the complexity of our reality. Through "The photograph," I seek to highlight this interconnection: how both the oppressed and the oppressors suffer under the weight of these expectations.

I want the viewers to reflect on the need to build a more inclusive and compassionate society, where authenticity and diversity are celebrated rather than repressed. The creation process has been deeply enriching. I have worked with a committed team that shares this vision, and together we have faced the challenges of addressing such a delicate and complex topic. I hope that by watching 'The Photograph', you can feel the urgency and passion behind this story.
