Abstract

La afinadora de árboles (2019), largometraje escrito y dirigido por la cineasta argentina Natalia Smirnoff, narra la historia de Clara Mains (Paola Barrientos), una autora de literatura infantil que, luego de recibir un prestigioso premio internacional, intenta superar su bloqueo creativo reconectando con personas del pasado que la inspiran a esbozar un nuevo futuro. El presente trabajo explora la película de Smirnoff desde una perspectiva intermedial, abordando la articulación de la práctica creadora y trayectoria vital de la protagonista mediante un análisis del diálogo entre lenguajes, códigos y medios artísticos, y su vínculo con cruces y tensiones entre juventud y madurez, espacios privados y públicos, y producción individual y colectiva en el devenir de la cinta. La afinadora de árboles [The Tree Tuner] (2019), written and directed by the Argentine filmmaker Natalia Smirnoff, depicts the story of Clara Mains (Paola Barrientos), a children’s literature author who, after receiving a prestigious international award, tries to overcome a creative block reconnecting with people from her past who inspire her to imagine a new future. This paper explores Smirnoff’s film from an intermedial perspective, addressing the articulation of the protagonist’s creative practice and life trajectory through an analysis of the dialogue between artistic languages, codes and media, and their links to the intersecting themes of–and tensions between–youth and maturity, private and public spaces, and individual and collective production.
