The presence of the absent arises from the need for contact as a human being in times of pandemic and lockdown. Recording in empty places due to the effects of Covid 19, showing the vast desolation.The presence of the absent is a film that has double exposure thus creating a third space where the absent can be connected, where freedom exists for the human being and contact becomes a reality in the imagination and through our great tool: the intuition. This film wants to show that we are united and we are part of the same even though they separate us.
