Ender’s Line

La linea del terminatore

Gabriele Biasi / Italy / 2023 / 16′ / Spanish | English and Italian subtitles


Ender’s Line is an experimental documentary that, through archival footage of space exploration and private videos of Argentine actress Fernanda Gonzalez, tells the story of a human leaving Earth to inhabit another planet. The focus of the film is Fernanda’s emotional journey: from the need to accept the desire to leave her country to the perception that this departure is a betrayal.
Fernanda, from her personal archive to footage of space exploration, whispers to us a poem that is an encouragement to leave, but also an attempt to survive in the Memory of those we left behind: the ultimate solution to continue to love each other without seeing each other again.
