Smuggling, in the Galician-Portuguese frontier, was always a reflection of the economic difficulties of both countries, of the common historical poverty to both territories, and a matter of survival for many people. In “Soy Una Tumba”, an animation of different graphic styles that create contrasts between reality and imagination, combining several cinematographic genres (between realism, fantasy and thriller), drug trafficking and smuggling serve as the background, but what matters to the filmmaker Khris Cembe is talking about childhood, about loneliness, and about death. To do so, he takes on the view of a child who, hidden, watches his father unloading smuggled tobacco, in the middle of a night that would prove to be tragic – the night he encountered death, and, in a frightening reverie, a boat takes him away from the childhood world, onto a journey with no return. Khris Cembe, who lived in Galicia in his youth, rescues, almost as if in a dream, diffused memories of poverty, rain and wind, and the loss of childish innocence. (MD)
