Nacho Cerdá
80 min.
In December 1974, a Spanish filmmaker named Sergio del Monte died in strange circumstances while shooting his first and last movie. Only a very few people were present at the screening of the unedited cut, and it would seem that they all either suffered the same fate as the director or lost their sight. The producers did away with the negatives. But a number of archived reel cans turn up in an Italian laboratory...
Gabriel Bertini
110 min.
Capital Rancho is the tale of a family forced to move into a shantytown stretching out from the big city where they mix with others in the same situation while they face the task of dealing with the conflicts of everyday life. Fifty years of social chaos condensed into two hours of narration.
Gastón Luis Biraben
120 min.
15 year-old Cristina lives in a Buenos Aires suburb with her parents. One morning, she is taken before the judge, who claims to have documents proving that her name is really Sofía Lombardi, the daughter of a couple of architects who disappeared during the so-called ?dirty war? in the 70s. The judge introduces her to Elisa, her biological grandmother, but the girl wants nothing to do with her and runs away.
Víctor Arregui
82 min.
This is the tale of Juan, a young, innocent and sensitive boy driven to crime by despair and the effects on his family and surroundings of his country's social, economic and financial collapse. Tired of the whole situation, Juan stages a heist in the attempt to achieve his golden dream: to leave his country and try his luck on another continent.
Santiago Loza
85 min.
Having left his job, Axel roams among people and things; something about his ramblings hints at time running out. One day he meets a pregnant woman, all alone, with whom he strikes up a relationship of mutual company akin to love.
Bruno Lázaro Pacheco
102 min.
A student from Toronto, Juán is fresh back from a trip to Barcelona and an affair with a girl called Sundra in the same city. He decides to send her ?video-letters?. Calling her early one morning, he is answered by a man. Sundra admits to having another lover, and advises him to do the same in view of the distance separating them. She also convinces Julián to secretly film his sexual encounters and send them to her.
Luis Alberto Restrepo
88 min.
A peasant couple are thrown off their land and brutally obliged to get by as they can in the streets of a strange, enormous and heartless city. The country's conflict condemns protagonists Toño and Paulina to exile, but that's not the only drama tormenting the twosome. Suffering, disillusion and amorous let-down grow inside them.
Francisco Lombardi
165 min.
Lombardi has used the High Definition Digital Video system to make a film linking six stories set around the appearance of the ?Vladi-videos? showing presidential adviser Vladimiro Montesinos bribing highly-placed officials and which were responsible for Fujimori's fall. The Festival will screen the first part of this ambitious project.
Joel Cano
110 min.
Three Cuban women's lives are turned upside down at the same time. María, a peasant woman, loses her son in unclear circumstances. Norma presents the news on TV and refuses to announce false information concerning the regime. Nieves is fired by her boss from her work at an illegal pig slaughterhouse. The fates of all three run into each other, weaving a tale as fragile as their lives amid a dying Communism.
Víctor Gaviria
105 min.
A real estate agent, Santiago becomes temporarily involved in drug trafficking with the intention of making fast money before ducking out of the scene and getting on with his business. But he is unable to do so when the time comes due to losing his money - legal and illegal alike - in a lightening kidnap.
