Bardo, False Chronicles of a Handful of Truths
Five-time Academy Award® winner Alejandro G. Iñárritu brings us Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths, an epic, visually stunning and immersive experience set against the intimate and moving journey of a renowned Mexican journalist and documentary filmmaker, Silverio Gama, played by Daniel Giménez Cacho. With both emotion and abundant laughter, Silverio grapples with universal yet intimate questions about identity, success, mortality, the history of Mexico and the deeply emotional familial bonds he shares with his wife and children—indeed, what it means to be human in these very peculiar times. Shot on resplendent 65mm by Academy Award® nominee Darius Khondji (Amour, Se7en) and written by Iñárritu and Nicolás Giacobone (Biutiful and the Oscar®-winning Birdman: or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance)), Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths features production design by the Oscar®-winning Mexican designer Eugenio Caballero (Roma, Pan’s Labyrinth) and costume design by Ann
