Mirror of Tunisia/Tunisia, the Trance and the Stone (1993) - Ral Ruiz
Miroir de Tunis/Tunis, la transe et la Pierre (1993)
Tunisia itself is the subject; we wanted to render the genius of the site. Tunisia is almost the central character of this little film: we see the relation of the city to the sea, the traces that bear witness to its foundation, the remains of Carthage, the symbolism of the recently discovered Medina coin … The splendours of the house interiors and courtyards are associated with a scene of origin, what psychoanalysis calls a primal scene. Entering these houses opens up a world peopled by women: the child’s ‘homecoming’ in the hands of women is staged as an abduction, playing doubly on fascination and terror. These places were mine, from my childhood, they can be found almost intact – it’s the return of the exile visiting the kingdom. I let Ruiz discover all this, and immediately that led him to echoes and resonances ranging from Spain to Chile.
Túnez mismo es el tema; Queríamos representar la genialidad del sitio. Túnez es casi el personaje central de esta pequeña película: vemos la relación de la ciudad con el mar, las huellas que atestiguan su fundación, los restos de Cartago, el simbolismo de la moneda de Medina recién descubierta… Los esplendores de la casa los interiores y los patios están asociados a una escena de origen, lo que el psicoanálisis llama una escena primaria. Entrar en estas casas abre un mundo poblado por mujeres: el “regreso a casa“ del niño en manos de mujeres se escenifica como un secuestro, jugando doblemente con la fascinación y el terror. Estos lugares fueron míos, desde mi infancia, se pueden encontrar casi intactos, es el regreso del exiliado visitando el reino. Dejé que Ruiz descubriera todo eso, y de inmediato eso lo llevó a ecos y resonancias que van desde España hasta Chile.
