Andrés Paniagua Translated by Diego Gerard Morrison
“Querida Ele:” is a series of docu-fictional correspondences that delve into the production of the film Elysium (2013) at the area of El Bordo de Xochiaca, Iztapalapa, and the surrounding areas of Mexico City. The work calls into question Mexico’s place in Hollywood’s imaginary, where dystopia, ecological collapse, and labor issues unfold in the future’s present tense. Diego Gerard Morrison translated the work for this booklet, which is also illustrated with film stills from Elysium.
