In Cuba, the nights are very dark indeed when there’s yet another power outage—but as much as possible, life goes on. People find their way around in the pitch dark, cyclists loom out of the blackness, children hang out on the streets by the light of flashlights. At the same time, the disruption appears to create intimacy: a priest takes the opportunity to open the Bible by candlelight and reads about the creation of light and darkness, an aged blind singer plays the guitar for his wife in their bedroom, a boy and his teacher play endless games of chess in the half-light, a fisherman heads calmly into the water with a lantern. Headlights from passing cars flash over houses shrouded in darkness, while the people inside sing and talk under the glow of portable lights.
From 1947 to 1969, the U.S. Air Force carried out a systematic study of unidentified flying object (UFO) sightings, codenamed “Project Blue Book.” Thousands of reports from American and European citizens were recorded during those years; more than 700 cases remained “unidentified.” The film reuses original documents from the now-declassified project, superimposing them over family footage from the same period. In the encounter between the domestic and the scientific, the familiar and the alien, a hidden portrait emerges of a nation haunted by its own astronomical obsessions.

For a little over a year, I filmed and spliced together different moments of which, to be honest, I don't remember much. The final result was edited onto two 600ft reels. There is no chronological progression, only fragments of a diary that I like to see as imaginary. I started filming in the spring with the aim of testing eight cameras. I filmed when I felt like it, day after day, and by the time summer arrived, I had accumulated a few reels and other old cameras. So in the winter, I decided to give shape to a film containing mistakes, notes, drafts, moments, and walks with pretty girls in the shadow of the valley where I grew up. "Shadow of the Valley" is my most personal and intimate work, made for myself only. I think anyone else will find it fake, self-centered, and downright pretentious.
