Join us for sweet dessert churros and Yerba Maté tea served from a communal gourd outside the theater before the show.

This rollicking evening of challenging, expressive, and oppositional Argentine cinema offers a window onto makers shredding formal niceties, relishing risk, and daring to access the sublime. Pithy and provocative animated vignettes in For You/Para usted contrast with the formal experiments of the split-screen Nunca fuimos Allah luna, the abstract Espectro, and the dizzying Sin título (Focus). Los Angeles actually portrays a community in Quiriguá, Guatemala, while Workshop responds to a Michael Snow work and The Argentine Cossacks portrays aging Argentinians who participated in the Hollywood adventure film Taras Bulba. From an achingly beautiful evocation of an hourglass in El eroticismo del tiempo to a darkly humorous evisceration of the tenets of the stock market in Stock, this program will take us to the land where summer is winter and winter is summer, and render our souls topsy-turvy too. We've mixed some young upstarts-including Macarena Gagliardi, Leandro Listorti, and Pablo Marin-with veterans like Leandro Katz and Narcisa Hirsch, who have been expanding the parameters of the medium since the early 1960s.
