The United Family Awaits the Visit of Hallewyn

Miguel Bejo

Osvaldo De la Vega, Judith Cingolani

In this surreal (and little seen) Argentinean film, a rich upper class family's secrets are exposed during the course of an evening meal. Tensions mount as emotions run high and taboo subjects are explored such as incest and politics. As their dinner table conversation begins to escalate into physical and verbal altercations, the family awaits the arrival of a friend named Hallewyn. When the night is over, will their friend still be joining them?

Volvoreta

Alberto Yaccelini

Volvoreta is a 3-year-old racing filly trained by an Argentine installed in France for more than 30 years. Carlos Lerner, born in Tucumán and raised in Monigotes, Santa Fé province, made a place for himself in the elite French turf with determination and work. When a Spanish owner entrusts him with Volvoreta to run in France, Carlos still does not know that the filly is an unusual competitor. He makes his debut winning, and after three races he is still undefeated. This opens the door for him to run the Prix de Diane, a prestigious Group 1 that would allow Carlos, in the event of victory, to establish himself as a first-line coach. The film closely follows the filly's training during the two weeks leading up to the big race and the stress of those tending to her.

Los de Saladillo

Julio Midú, Fabio Junco

In 2001, during the great Argentine crisis, when the desperate and depressed population imagined that the country, like Atlantis, was going to disappear under the waters, two young people from Saladillo did not stop making video films using the inhabitants of Saladillo as interpreters. the pampa city. The films, written, filmed and finished in a very short time, are broadcast on local television, breaking audience records. The film follows the activity of the tenacious and enthusiastic Fabio Junco and Julio Midú and their relationship with the neighbors who, in addition to being actors, provide them with all the facilities so that they can make their films. It is the beginning of what will later be known as “cinema with neighbors”, who consider this involvement as a kind of therapy and escape from a particularly adverse daily life.

Pablo di Gruccio

In the small towns of the Argentine pampas, the quadreras, horse races over short distances, continue to be a passion. In Saladillo, Buenos Aires province, Pablo, a photographer for the local newspaper, with a degree in personnel compression, knows that after 57 years it will not be easy to find a job. His survival and that of his family now depend on the rain not causing the cancellation of a square, since with an ingenious artisan photo-finish system, he is responsible for the final verdict of an arrival, which avoid arguments and conflicts.
