The South
Lengua materna
Liliana Paolinelli
Claudia Lapacó, Virginia Innocenti
Ruth has been with Nora for fourteen years. Everybody knows about their relationship except for her mother Estela, who has never suspected it. Ruth, who is almost forty, feels the need to confess her homosexuality to her mother, who at first is shocked and collapses on the floor. She then feels the desire to understand her daughter, who has hidden an important part of her life from her for many years. So elderly Estela begins to discover the L-World: she reads books and magazines, she tries to meet her daughter's ex girlfriends and she goes to lesbian nightclubs and meeting-places, creating misunderstandings and comic situations. What does Ruth think about this? At first, she is annoyed by her mother's intrusion into her life, but she will soon understand Estela's reasons and she will rely on her to get over her crisis with Nora. This sharp, amusing comedy deals with the difficult parent-child relationship, which is portrayed through irony and without hypocrisy.

Los amores de Laurita
Antonio Ottone
Alicia Zanca, Daniel Fanego
Laurita, a 40-year-old woman, accepts taboos of all kinds. In the search for an identity, she goes from one man to another, from the present to the past, from fantasy to reality. However, there is a tension that grows and grows, until it culminates in a surprise. Her memory goes back to review her loves and the different stages of her life: adolescence, her transgressing role and her fight against her own prejudices.
