Lucrecia Martel
1966 (57 лет)Um Filme de Cinema
Walter Carvalho
Ariano Suassuna, Ruy Guerra
An abandoned tumbledown theater in the outback of Paraíba state is the initial setting of a film about cinema, which explores the testimonials of the novelist and playwright Ariano Suassuna and other filmmakers such as Ruy Guerra, Julio Bressane, Ken Loach, Andrzej Wajda, Karim Ainouz, José Padilha, Hector Babenco, Vilmos Zsigmond, Béla Tarr, Gus Van Sant and Jia Zhangke. They all respond to two basic questions: why do they make movies and why do they serve the seventh art. The filmmakers share their thoughts about time, narrative, rhythm, light, movement, the meaning of tragedy, the audience‘s desires and the boundaries with other forms of art.
About Cinema
Leguas
Lucrecia Martel
Gael García Bernal
Moving between classrooms – static interiors and roaring, raucous exteriors – Leagues explores the subject of academic exclusion in native communities. Named after an archaic unit of measurement, Martel's postcolonial film depicts how education, though a social tool, can also create division and discrimination.
Leagues
The Holy Girl
Lucrecia Martel
María Alché, Mercedes Morán
Amalia is an adolescent girl who is caught in the throes of her emerging sexuality and her deeply held passion for her Catholic faith. These two drives mingle when the visiting Dr. Jano takes advantage of a crowd to get inappropriately close to the girl. Repulsed by him but inspired by an inner burning, Amalia decides it is her God-given mission to save the doctor from his behavior, and she begins to stalk Dr. Jano, becoming a most unusual voyeur.

Terminal Norte
Lucrecia Martel
Julieta Laso, Mariana Carrizo

Nueva Argirópolis
Lucrecia Martel
Snatches of conversation, movements in coastal areas, videos circulating on the Internet warning of a conspiracy. From the Bermejo river basin there are people who sail in camalotes to the islands that are emerging in the Delta. Maybe it’s an invasion, perhaps an attempt at re-foundation.
