Jury statement
“O QUE ARDE” by Olivier LAXE BEST SOUND CREATION PRIZE 2019 “Un Certain Regard
Under the aegis of its president, actor and director Robin RENUCCI, the jury for the 3rd edition of the Prix de la Meilleure Création Sonore, made up of composer Jorge ARRIAGADA, journalist Elsa BOUBLIL, philosopher Cynthia FLEURY, and Janine LANGLOIS-GLANDIER and Christian HUGONNET, founders of the prize, unanimously chose to reward Franco-Spanish director Olivier LAXE for his film “O Que Arde” (Come Fire).
” A manifesto for nature that speaks to the incendiary nature of a world that destroys life and the excluded.
The part reserved for sound creation is richly semantic.
It underpins this ancient and terribly modern drama, which is also about silence, deceleration and fidelity to regional languages in this era of standardizing globalization.
It’s an attempt to escape the destiny into which our societies drift and lock themselves.
This is a powerful work, a true perceptive and cinematographic experience. “
