The world has ended, but the news hasn’t reached us yet. Driven by a desire for revenge, a filmmaker recalls some of the images he has posted on Twitter over the years. What he learns along the way—nothing—will change him forever.

Critical text

Julián Génisson is one of those filmmakers who makes you wish they lived in a world where making movies was not so expensive, and, consequently, so slow. There is something about his images and ideas that screams immediacy and spontaneity, even when we know there are years of hard work behind them. Cuando te mueres, te conviertes en un sitio… also operates on that mechanism. In fact, it manages to break free from contemporary production logic to present itself directly, without intermediaries, just as Iván Cardoso’s experimental tropical film screenings proclaimed: “The film begins when you arrive!” In this case, it consists of a collection of images posted by Julián on the defunct Twitter between 2011 and 2025, with no commentary or order other than to remain faithful to the timeline in which they were shared on the social media. A personal scroll, could we call it intimate if it was published for fourteen years? I would say so. An almost infinite scroll, full of recurring ideas, humor, awkward moments, friends, friends’ movies, and other affections, that never runs out. Let’s call it a scroll with spirit. As we have said, related to Bacanal do Diabo… by Iván Cardoso, or to the work of María Cañas, or even to Joe Dante’s The Movie Orgy, Cuando te mueres te conviertes en un sitio… possesses the forcefulness of the absurd, something you feel like embracing, and a little pussy in bio too.
