In the City of Sylvia / Dans La Ville De Sylvia Series: The 45th New York Film Festival [Sep 28 - Oct 14 2007] Director: José Luis Guerín, Release: 2007, Runtime: 84 During a few languid summer days, a young foreigner spends his afternoons sketching in an outdoor café. He is looking for a woman named Sylvia who he’d met years before in the same city, but he is also sketching the many attractive young women he sees everywhere, any one of whom could be her. Then one fine afternoon, he thinks he’s actually seen her, and he sets off through the city to confront his memory. José Luis Guerín’s lovely, exceedingly graceful work eloquently captures the feeling of being in love with love, and the youthful sense of a world filled with an almost limitless sensuality. Spain/France
