dc.description.abstract“Nocturnal Tree” is a 10-minute hybrid-fiction film that delves into a revolutionary fertility treatment developed by Manuel Mendoza Alguero, otherwise known as Mane, who is a local healer based in Los Remedios, Colombia. The film entices the viewer to consider both the truth and validity behind this mythical treatment. Through the eyes of two contrasting individuals, scientist Lily Noches and Mane, the film follows a non-linear narrative that juxtaposes rationality and mysticism, while exploring topics such as motherhood, love, and conception. The film's structure blends documentary and fiction elements, resulting in a plot that is shaped by both reality and imagination. This interplay between factual and fictional story creates a ghostly narrative that offers a fresh and thought-provoking interpretation of the narrator’s imagination.
