Extraordinary Stories

X arrives in a small town and witnesses a violent act; Z takes the job of a dead manager and discovers that he had a notebook written in code and a map; H is hired to go down a river and investigate a series of mysterious monoliths built on the shore.

Fatherland

Fatherland brings a rigorous structural approach to a site of monuments that is also a place of movement, criss-crossed daily by tourists and locals. The grounds are laid out like city blocks, with wide avenues branching onto laneways filled with elaborate mausoleums. The film does not attempt to tour the cemetery as one would on foot, however, but rather moves chronologically through the history enshrined there. A series of individuals are framed in static compositions as they read aloud excerpts from the writings of noteworthy Argentines interred within. (Some license has been taken, as the final resting places of certain figures represented - such as journalist Rodolfo Walsh, who was among the "disappeared" - remain unknown. The result is both poetic and political.) Beginning in the early 1800s, this history comprises civil war, battles with the country's native population, the conflict between the city and the provinces, and years of military dictatorship.

Fanny camina

Pablo Dacal y el misterio del Lago Rosario

A monolith is the excuse for a journey to an obsession full of charms and, like every dream, also some disappointment.

La casa

A story by Mario Levrero and a mythical house in the Paraná Delta (Tigre - Argentina) conspire to shape this film, as two pieces that complement each other but without keeping a total synchronization. The voice-over becomes the common thread of a fantastic surreal story about strange events that occurred in an abandoned house. The action highlighted with the unique presence of insects, shadows, reflections and rain, proposes scenarios for the specific spaces in the story and invites you to recreate the characters and events narrated there.
