Juan Sánchez Peláez o la amistad de los poetas

Piragua is a short documentary that pays intimate tribute to the life of Malena Coelho, the beloved Argentine editor, proofreader, and lifelong companion of Venezuelan poet Juan Sánchez Peláez. Directed by Santiago Zerpa and produced by Gabriel Payares, the film weaves together candid interviews and personal reflections to explore Coelho’s rich intellectual and emotional world, her deep partnership with Peláez, and the profound impact of poetry and memory on her life.

This documentary takes us on a sensorial and atmospheric journey through the experiences, words and thoughts of the Venezuelan essayist and poet Armando Rojas Guardia. His early connection with the divine, the gradual inner maturation of a mystical experience that he manages to glimpse in his early adulthood, the determining and complex influence of his father (also a writer), his first crush on a young high school classmate, the profound experience of homoeroticism, the abysses of the psychotic crisis. All experiences pushed to the limit and which make up some of the singular elements of a unique artistic and intellectual quest with a broad universal scope.
