Splits

A cinematic investigation about death and the power of photography, El Día Que Me Quieras is a meditation on the last photo taken of Ernesto Che Guevara, when he was lying dead on a cement pile surrounded by those who captured him in Bolivia, in 1967

Two cable guys who have been working together for many years decide to rob a bank, take lots of many and fulfill their life-long dream: not to work ever again. That is, of course, if everything goes well... but that won’t be the case in this independent comedy that is as free as it is funny

A 2002 interview with John Vaccaro, founder of the Playhouse of the Ridiculous, recalling the actors’ walkout during rehearsals of The Conquest of the Universe, and his friendship with Charles Ludlam. The Theater of the Ridiculous was a radical theater genre that embodied queer, the word and the act, and set the embers of Gay Liberation aflame.

The New York underground linked the paths of the actor and playwright Charles Ludlam, the superstar of avant-garde cinema Mario Montez and the Argentine artist Leandro Katz. An underground community found refuge in a porn cinema that Ludlam rented at night to stage his theater of the ridiculous. In 1970 he premiered The Grand Tarot, an extravagant burlesque where the arcana became characters and a reading of cards before the performance began established the order of the scenes. Rollo Six materializes that furtive experience, recovering in its formal commitment the inventiveness of chance that guided Ludlam's work. Katz superimposes edited scenes in camera, fracturing the screen through the use of masks that cover the lens and allow him to separately expose each corner of the frame.
