“Why are you making films?” In his documentary La Súbstancia, shot in China, Lluís Galter reflects on his career and asks himself this question while filming it. Facing professional pressures and a personal crisis during this filming, Galter rediscovers his enthusiasm for cinema, which motivates him to develop Aftersun, resuming a freer and more creative approach to his work. With a true and contemplative gaze, Galter emphasises the value of authenticity and enjoyment in the creative process, striking a balance between professional seriousness and the artistic freedom that defines his work
