music by Dan Romer and Benh Zeitlin
A powerful and poetic debut feature of Benh Zeitlin starring Quvenzhané Wallis and Dwight Henry, also in their acting debuts as Hushpuppy and Wink, respectively.
According to Wikipedia, at the audition the then five-year-old Wallis “impressed the filmmakers with her reading ability, tremendous scream, and ability to burp on command, all of which are used in the film”.
This movie was shown as a part of the cycle Tiempo de memoria, memoria en el tiempo, organised by Instituto Canario de Desarrollo Cultural (ICDC).
