Daniel Burman (né le 29 août 1973 à Buenos Aires) est un réalisateur et producteur de cinéma argentin.

Biography

Natif du quartier d'Once, à Buenos Aires, Daniel Burman a situé ses films les plus significatifs au cœur de ce microcosme commerçant et multicuturel. Le réalisateur commence sa carrière avec le court métrage ¿ En qué estación estamos ? (1993) qui obtient le Prix spécial de l'UNESCO. En 1995, Niños envueltos, essai de fin d'études, est inclus dans un ensemble d'œuvres réunies sous le titre Historias breves, aux côtés de Lucrecia Martel et de Israel Adrián Caetano. Après avoir créé BD Cine, sa propre maison de production, Burman, réalise enfin son premier long métrage, Un crisantemo estalla en cinco esquintas (1998). Sa filmographie oscille entre comédie de mœurs et drame psychologique, souvent teinté d'une forte connotation autobiographique. On peut voir en Daniel Hendler, acteur principal d'une trilogie constituée de Esperando al mesías (2000), El abrazo partido (2003) et Derecho de familia (2006), une sorte d'alter ego, dont l'une des épreuves personnelles est centré autour de la recherche identitaire. Cette inclination vers l'analyse introspective se prolonge avec El nido vacío (2008). Daniel Burman poursuit également un parcours de producteur assez multiforme : Carnets de voyage (W. Salles, 2004) ou Mientras tanto (2006, D. Lerman) ont bénéficié de son soutien.

The story is centered around a family of five, a father, mother, their two sons, and daughter, revolving around the father. The reality within the diegesis is the one of the father, Leonardo. The film plays with chronology and reality. Leonardo is a well-known writer and playwright, whose his wife left university studies to take care of the family. The film begins with a scene of a dinner in which Leonardo seems uncomfortable because, as is learned later in the film, he is witnessing a possible affair between his wife and an old college friend of hers. The film documents the troubles of the marriage as Leonardo has a brief affair with his dentist shortly after his youngest daughter leaves to Israel with her new husband Ianib. Leonardo's version of reality is, at many times, questionable during the film. He talks to a doctor that researches memory and they talk about the construction of memory and fantasy and it alludes to the self-reflexivity of the film. Leonardo's son in law Ianib leaves behind a book for him to read and asks for his opinion of it. Leonardo takes some time to actually read the book even though he carries it around for most of the film. When he finally reads the book, he is surprised to find out that it is brilliant. This scene is accompanied with a distinct use of lighting that focuses on Leonardo and his absorption within the novel.
