Amores Perros

by

Bilingual edition (English and Spanish) The release of Amores Perros in 2000 heralded the arrival of a master of modern cinema. Alejandro G. Iñárritu’s debut feature presented the fierce realities of Mexico City’s underworld through three interlocking narratives of hope and fear, desire and revenge, played out by Emilio Echevarría, Goya Toledo, Gael García Bernal, and Marco Pérez. The film’s luminous and gritty visual language is translated to the page in this new publication, which marks the film’s twenty-fifth anniversary with an unprecedented deep dive into its making. Here Iñárritu brings together stills, on-set photography, behind-the-scenes materials, and cuttings from its critical reception to weave a thrilling narrative of the film’s immense production and influence. The intricate construction of the film’s tripartite structure is tracked through stills alongside Iñárritu’s handwritten notes devising the subtexts, driving forces, and characterisation of each scene, interleaved with original storyboards by Fernando Llanos. Combining drama, brutality, suspense, and pathos, Iñárritu’s fragmentary but propulsive original tale is reflected in the collaged arrangement of the book’s design. Completed by a new text by Iñárritu himself, contributions by renowned directors Denis Villeneuve and Walter Salles, award-winning novelists Jorge Volpi and Wendy Guerra, film critic Elvis Mitchell, and the film’s storyboard artist Fernando Llanos, Amores Perros offers a rich insight into the practice and process of one of the world’s leading filmmakers. El estreno de Amores Perros en el año 2000 anunció la llegada de un maestro del cine moderno. La ópera prima de Alejandro G. Iñárritu presentó la dura realidad del mundo subterráneo de la Ciudad de México a través de tres narrativas entrelazadas de esperanza y miedo, deseo y venganza, interpretadas por Emilio Echevarría, Goya Toledo, Gael García Bernal y Marco Pérez. El lenguaje visual luminoso y crudo de la película se traslada a las páginas de esta nueva publicación, que conmemora el vigésimo quinto aniversario de la película con una inmersión sin precedentes en su realización. Aquí, Iñárritu reúne fotogramas, fotografías del rodaje, material detrás de las cámaras y recortes de la recepción de la crítica para tejer una emocionante narrativa sobre la inmensa producción y la influencia de la película. La intrincada construcción de la estructura tripartita de la película se sigue a través de fotogramas junto con las notas manuscritas de Iñárritu en las que se describen los subtextos, las fuerzas motrices y la caracterización de cada escena, intercaladas con los storyboards originales de Fernando Llanos. Combinando drama, brutalidad, suspense y patetismo, la historia original de Iñárritu, fragmentaria pero impulsora, se refleja en la disposición collage del diseño del libro. Completado con un nuevo texto del propio Iñárritu, una contribución de los renombrados directores Walter Salles, los galardonados novelistas Jorge Volpi y Wendy Guerra, el crítico de cine Elvis Mitchell y el guionista gráfico de la película Fernando Llanos, Amores Perros ofrece una rica visión de la práctica y el proceso de uno de los cineastas más importantes del mundo.
