Satori Sur

Satori Sur

2019 · 70 min · Documentary

To describe Miguel Grinberg as a journalist, writer and poet doesn’t do him justice. A key fgure of the Argentine counterculture in the 60s, he played a similar role to those of Allen Ginsberg and Jonas Mekas in the US; unsurprisingly, he was a close friend and collaborated with them both. Satori Sur focuses on their correspondence while celebrating Grinberg’s 80th birthday, surrounded by memories, unpublished texts, unwritten books and existential notes.
