Silver Nitrate – Silvia Moreno-Garcia

The setting – Mexico City in the early 90s. Monserat, a film editor, and her actor friend Tristan meet Abel, a film director whose last film was unreleased in 1961. Can merging of sound and visuals (runes) with silver nitrate film be a conduit for spells? Can an un-released film produce bad luck? Can a spell be undone? Moreno-Garcias’s latest horror book reminds me of her brilliant Mexican Gothic.
