Ten twenties. Five girls and five boys at the height of youth, when the distance is starting to make out adult life. Pieces of life captured in short sequences in different scenarios, and not follow any narrative structure. Amanecidos are the pages of a diary or a photo album open to chance. These are memories that come to mind without warning. A story that beats as strongly as its young protagonists.

Lily, despite being an architect, dedicates her August nights to handing out flyers in a Madrid bar. She loves appearing to be who she is not, she is strong, independent and friends are not lacking.

The fifth cartridge exposed by Yonay Boix’s super 8 camera offers a continuation of the author’s filmed journals that he carefully composes frame by frame, exploring the potential of celluloid and in-camera editing. This time, the leitmotiv is either a spot of light or a dark spot that he generates using a pierced piece of paper and a glass filter onto which he has previously painted a black dot, respectively. These procedures trace back to the mechanisms of early cameras, reminding us that what we see is not the world but the glimpse of it that a contraption was able to catch.
