I recently saw the movie Clock, an American drama directed by Alexis Jacknow that tells the story of Ella, a successful interior designer married to a doctor. They seem to be the ideal couple, happy, with a perfect life. The social pressure of not having children at the age of 37 leads her to secretly undergo a medical fertility experiment. A project for which her husband works without her knowledge. After a consultation with the gynecologist, she is persuaded by the doctors and undergoes a treatment to get pregnant and this generates some side effects creating hallucinations.
In the plot, the young girl is confronted with her Jewish ancestors who survived the Nazi holocaust. Her fear of becoming a mother comes from her loyalty to her grandmother who tries to protect her from an inhuman world. Her paranoia leads her to confront her father to the point of taking his life by mistaking him for the clock, a symbol of the passing of time and the legacy of a past from which she wants to dissociate herself.
Recientemente vi la película Clock traducida al ingles como sin tiempo, una trama estadounidense dirigida por Alexis Jacknow que cuenta la historia de Ella, una diseñadora de interiores, exitosa casada con un médico. Parecen ser la pareja ideal, feliz, con toda la vida perfecta. La presión social por no tener hijos a sus 37 años, la lleva a someterse a escondidas a un experimento médico de fertilidad. Un proyecto para el que trabaja su esposo sin que ella lo sepa. Tras una consulta al ginecólogo, Ella es persuadida por los médicos y se somete a un tratamiento para quedar embarazada y este genera unos efectos secundarios creando alucinaciones.
En la trama, la joven se confronta con sus antepasados judíos sobrevivientes del holocausto nazi. Su temor a ser mamá viene dado por la lealtad a su abuela que intenta protegerla de un mundo inhumano. Su paranoia la lleva a confrontar a su padre hasta quitarle la vida al confundirlo con el reloj, símbolo del paso del tiempo y la herencia de un pasado del que quiere deslindarse.

This film poses a moral problem: science without ethics. The desire for experimentation with humans, without limits, under the complicity of a guild and the authorities regardless of the collateral effects.
On the other hand, it is a psychological drama that raises the conflict of motherhood as an imperative of being a woman. Although some women decide not to be mothers, society questions this practice of the new generations, subjecting them to psychological pressures and treatments that do not always work and can affect their health.
Esta película nos plantea un problema moral: la ciencia sin ética. El deseo de experimentación con humanos, sin límites, bajo la complicidad de un gremio y la autoridades sin importar los efectos colaterales.
Por otro lado, es un drama psicológico que plantea el conflicto de la maternidad como imperativo de ser mujer. Aunque algunas mujeres deciden no ser madres, la sociedad cuestiona esta práctica de las nuevas generaciones sometiendolas presiones psicológicas y tratamientos que no siempre funciona y pueden afectar su salud.
Likewise, it reveals the conservative religious values that conceive the only family model to be one in which there are children. In this sense, if there are no children, there is no family.
The director plays with the image of the clock as a symbol of the passing of time. Time is built from an inheritance of which we are part and we contribute to it, to the extent that we make the right decisions. To this end, he has used the resource of hallucination in the script to place before the spectator the two possible stories that confront each other: the real and the imagined.
Asimismo, nos deja ver los valores religiosos conservadores que conciben como único modelo de familia, aquella donde hay hijos. En tal sentido, sino hay hijos no hay familia.
El director juega con la imagen del reloj, como símbolo de lo que transcurre. El tiempo está construido de una herencia de la que somos parte y contribuimos con ella, en la medida que tomamos decisiones correctas. Para ello ha usado en el guion el recurso de la alucinación para colocar ante el espectador los dos posibles relatos que se confrontan: lo real y lo imaginado.

As the film's character is an interior designer, the director emphasizes the use of large spaces and a minimalist palette to accentuate the conflict.
What is real is the present. What is in front of your eyes, however every story has at the same time multiple stories or correlates that underlie the apparent real. In this sense the film is an ironic plot that poses the irrationality of a rationality.
Como el personaje de la película es una diseñadora de interiores, el director hace un énfasis en el manejo de las ambientaciones a través de grandes espacios y con una paleta minimalista que ayuda acentuar el conflicto.
Lo real es el presente. Lo que está frente a tus ojos, sin embargo todo relato tiene al mismo tiempo múltiples historias o correlatos que subyacen a lo real aparente. En este sentido la película es una trama irónica que plantea la irracionalidad de una racionalidad.
