The life of Juan José Gorasurreta is pierced by images. In his new feature film, the historic film society programmer appropriates the films that made him in order to find new relationships and patterns and thus generate a convergence between his personal life, that of Argentina and that of cinema. In The Absences his travels coexist with Orson Welles, activism, Fernando Birrri, the Cordobazo, his studies, Eva Landeck, family, Carlos Echeverría, the Trelew Massacre, Nagisa Ōshima, censorship, film societies, the Malvinas war, his short films. The randomness of this list vanishes as the film progresses, and gives way to a synapse that is as logical as it is moving. “It is a portrait on how Argentine history and my encounter with films designed my sensitive areas” —as he did with his own story, no one could define The Absences better than Gorasurreta himself.

Her father drew and painted. He also created murals and recorded family life with a home camera. He was interested in the intersection of justice and beauty, in everything that enchants the passing of the day and in every event that politically shapes an era. He painted horror, mercy, and imagination; he drew diverse human figures with his brush, sometimes associating them with situations that provoke indignation at a world order that favors the few. This is how Melina Terribili portrays her father, Carlos Terribili, a prominent Buenos Aires artist whose murals, such as "The Grey Angel," epitomize his technique and ideology. Terribili uses diverse materials: those she filmed recently in excellent resolution and in the 1990s on video with lower resolution, as well as fragments filmed on Super-8 and video by her parents.

Guillermo Franco photographs the same city every day of his life. He does so with an analog camera, stores the rolls for years, and develops them randomly. He archives the negatives and, some time later, rediscovers those images. Under a philosophy that prioritizes the emotional experience of looking, Franco builds, over time, an intimate cartography of his own gaze and, at the same time, a visual memory of his city. Pequeños ojos rescues his artistic process and reveals the essence of who is, perhaps, the greatest exponent of everyday life photography in Córdoba in Argentina.
