El documental, Los ataques con 谩ntrax de 2022, es llevado de la direcci贸n de Dan Krauss, cineasta reconocido por otras creaciones y nominado al Oscar, lo cual no es garant铆a de ser un documental exitoso, pero en lo que a m铆 concierne lo es. El largometraje estructura los archivos de la investigaci贸n realizada por el FBI, acerca de cartas con esporas de 谩ntrax despu茅s del 11 de septiembre en USA, situaci贸n que sembr贸 temor a la sociedad. El director decide compartir los hechos para que el espectador reciba la informaci贸n en 90 minutos, as铆 logre reflexionar y sacar conclusiones sobre c贸mo fue abordado los "ataques" terroristas.
I am still in search of audiovisual creations that document facts based on real life; knowing the experience of an event that had an impact on the world population, due to the consequences of the problem is important to me. The title of the documentary, The Anthrax Attacks, interested me immediately, my mind visualized two scenarios, one, terrorism in spreading fear to the collective; and the other, the role of science doing studies to determine the origin. In short, the documentary fulfills the purpose of promoting analysis through the different sources of information that make up the tragic event. I affirmed that the work caught me instantly, I am satisfied with this screening and I will now explain the details.
The documentary, The Anthrax Attacks of 2022, is directed by Dan Krauss, an Oscar-nominated filmmaker known for his other creations, which is no guarantee of a successful documentary, but as far as I am concerned it is. The film structures the files of the FBI's investigation into the post 9/11 anthrax spore letters in the U.S., a situation that spread fear in society. The director decides to share the facts so that the viewer receives the information in 90 minutes, so he can reflect and draw conclusions about how the terrorist "attacks" were dealt with.
Las im谩genes de min煤sculas esporas de 谩ntrax son el principio de una grabaci贸n visual que recrea el discurso de un profesional para comprender c贸mo mata la bacteria. El introductorio, con un nivel de tensi贸n, hilvana los datos visuales del fen贸meno, es decir, videos de 2001 muestran la urgencia que atravesaba los Estados Unidos. El argumento es revelado, no hay secretos, la premisa se fecunda sobre la credibilidad de la investigaci贸n ejecutada por el FBI. El juego de los di谩logos y narraci贸n dan forma para conocer los errores de la indagaci贸n; an谩lisis de informaciones recaudadas, poco confiables para buscar culpables; el gasto elevado y tiempo que se llev贸 la investigaci贸n; por 煤ltimo, ni menos importante, la indiferencia de los responsables por los fallecidos, familiares y de quienes padecieron por tener contacto con el 谩ntrax. Por tanto, desde el principio hasta el final me mantuve interesada en toparme con una realidad preocupante e incierta representada en una pel铆cula ficticia.
El dinamismo del documental te invita a estar atento a cada detalle, la construcci贸n de la proyecci贸n combina entrevistas, guion y documentos visuales. Existen pasajes donde las entrevistas testifican posiciones que demuestran debilidad y a la vez poder. Los testimonios de los afectados que expresan sentimientos y opiniones de la vivencia en general sobre los ataques, c贸mo se atendi贸 el problema y se帽alar un culpable. Tambi茅n el documental tiene un guion para escenas donde la actuaci贸n, Clark Gregg, representa al Dr. Bruce Ivins, el investigador distinguido, se帽alado culpable; la interpretaci贸n del actor es, de altura, un hombre inseguro que pelea con demonios, basados en pensamientos extra铆dos de los registros del FBI.
Images of tiny anthrax spores are the beginning of a visual recording that recreates the speech of a professional to understand how the bacteria kills. The introductory, with a level of tension, threads the visual data of the phenomenon, i.e., videos from 2001 show the urgency that the United States was going through. The plot is revealed, there are no secrets, the premise is fecundated on the credibility of the investigation executed by the FBI. The game of dialogues and narration give shape to the errors of the investigation; the analysis of the information collected, unreliable to look for the culprits; the high expense and time that the investigation took; last but not least, the indifference of those responsible for the deceased, their families and those who suffered for having contact with the anthrax. Therefore, from beginning to end I remained interested in encountering a disturbing and uncertain reality represented in a fictitious film.
The dynamism of the documentary invites you to be attentive to every detail, the construction of the projection combines interviews, script and visual documents. There are passages where the interviews testify positions that show weakness and at the same time power. The testimonies of those affected express feelings and opinions about the general experience of the attacks, how the problem was dealt with and how to pinpoint a culprit. Also, the documentary has scripted scenes where the actor, Clark Gregg, portrays Dr. Bruce Ivins, the distinguished investigator, the one singled out as the culprit; the actor's performance is, in height, an insecure man fighting with demons, based on thoughts extracted from FBI records.
La cinematograf铆a habla de un tema angustiante, los qu铆micos como arma terrorista y el papel de los laboratorios en la sociedad; algunos piensan que las casas de laboratorios necesitan producir estragos en la salud para luego ofrecer soluci贸n y mantenerse con vida. Otra realidad recurrente en este tipo documental drama, es la participaci贸n de los medios de comunicaci贸n y su lucha por tomar las riendas de las noticias sin importar nada; no obstante, tambi茅n los medios presionaron para que se resuelva el caso despu茅s de un largo tiempo de los atentados.
Formulo la pregunta de costumbre en mis publicaciones 驴Por qu茅 debo ver Los ataques con 谩ntrax? Confirmo que
es entretenido e informativo por qu茅 el director logr贸 desde su punto de vista compartir la historia desde los datos de archivos y personajes involucrados de importancia en los ataques. De igual forma, el documental, te conduce a repensar sobre los indicios presentados por el FBI, ya que todo es posible. La verdad del final est谩 abierto, el espectador es juez para determinar qui茅n es el culpable. Por 煤ltimo, las v铆ctimas ser谩n siempre las menos valoradas cuando el estatus de un organismo peligra, motivo que genera decepci贸n y molestia, el documental transmite asombro por la ligereza del asunto o vac铆os de la investigaci贸n.
The cinematography speaks of a distressing theme, chemicals as a terrorist weapon and the role of laboratories in society; some think that laboratory houses need to wreak havoc on health to then offer a solution and stay alive. Another recurring reality in this type of documentary drama, is the participation of the media and their struggle to take the reins of the news no matter what; however, the media also pushed for the case to be solved after a long time after the attacks.
I ask the usual question in my posts Why should I watch The Anthrax Attacks? I confirm that
it is entertaining and informative because the director managed from his point of view to share the story from the archival data and important people involved in the attacks. Likewise, the documentary, leads you to rethink about the evidence presented by the FBI, since everything is possible. The truth of the end is open, the viewer is the judge to determine who is guilty. Finally, the victims will always be the least valued when the status of an organization is in danger, a motive that generates disappointment and annoyance, the documentary conveys astonishment at the lightness of the matter or gaps in the investigation.
