Director Statement

REMATANTE (HIGHEST BIDDER) was conceived as an psychological and aesthetic experiment that allows to confront not only the consequences of frenzied human desire, but also the objectification of the Being, under a master-slave dialectic that surrounds the unusual view of a male human as a victim of sexual exploitation.
