CGiii Comment
Every day Rowin goes to the rocky coast of Curaçao to catch fish. Though his mother Gracia doesn't want him to, he keeps going, magnetically drawn to the water. There he meets an apparition from the precolonial world. Wordless encounters follow, full of magic, rituals and synchronicity. Mother and son appear to be involved in a grieving process that drives them apart, but the natural forces of Curaçao with its mystical and charged history ensure that their pain can be healed. La Ultima Ascensión is a layered and symbolic ode to the island and its countless untold stories, carried by Afro-Caribbean and indigenous spirituality.
