Como si Fuera Viento

Alex Reynolds
2018

Every film could be said to be two films at once: on the one hand, there is the story being told, and on the other, a document of the people and places that make that story possible. As a group of friends decides to turn their holiday on the Galician coast into a shoot for a zombie film, Como si Fuera Viento emerges as a celebration of friendship that is at once tender and horrific.
