Omtale

A car is found abandoned at night in the middle of the Argentine Pampas, with a jerrycan of gasoline beside it. Suddenly, the vehicle bursts into flames, and we see that, inside, a woman is sitting behind the wheel, unfazed. Beside her rests a book with the title Things We Lost in the Fire.So begins Lucas Nine's brilliant graphic novel adaptation of the renowned short story collection of the same name by Mariana Enriquez - one of the most groundbreaking and original voices writing today. This opening scene provides the visual thread that connects the four selected stories: 'The Dirty Kid', 'An Invocation of the Big-Eared Runt', 'The Neighbor's Courtyard', and 'Under the Black Water'.
