I am not really good when i have to choose favorites things and i do not like it either, but for this occasion, i feel really enthusiastic with this picture. This was taken long ago, like 4 years ago, by a friend who also play poker that day. As it can be seen in the photo the main event of the night was this poker match, and spontaneously we try to make it feel like an underground one. Some of us was acting like a casino's characters and obviously there were bets, drinks and Johnny Cash songs. We was playing until next morning and, i have to say, there was i discover my fondness for gambling and some talent for that (as i wish to remember). This was a great moment for all of us and we could enjoy another gambling's nights after. And, finally, this was a pleasant memory with Sebastián who was a friend who sadly died 2 years ago.

As i mentioned in a previous post, since last 4 years i've been studying Cine and Television and my opinion about it gradually change to be a negative one. Personally i think the mainstream film and tv productions are deeply aligned with ideology and from my point of view authorial and experimental films could have good intentions but many times doesn't care about his real impact in distribution terms, so in many times are production reserved to limited and specialized public, a segment in the big picture of market. This argument is particularly true to national film production sphere and there is a few written works about the topic. Now, i think there is some ways where my major can have a positive impact. For example, many contemporany cultural changes was been supported by film and television programs, maybe not in radical ways, but with a big impact. Anyway, now i am trying to make my way in cinemagoing studies and this option only was possible thanks this career.
