27 Nights

Paciente 1

When a woman is admitted by her daughters to a psychiatric clinic for her carefree ways, an expert must judge if she is ill or simply wants to enjoy life.

Swim Alone

Lucas Tamborino

The film does not describe, rather it observes, in a distant manner, the world of Martin, a seventeen year old who feels he doesn’t belong anywhere, not at home, school, nor with his friends or members of his rock band. In search of some happiness, Martin takes off to the coastal town of Mar de Plata, where his older brother lives. Unglamorous, yet enchantingly addictive and refreshingly genuine, Acuña paints a confused and uncomfortable world, and makes us want revisit it over and over again.

Solos

Four young people travel through lost towns of the jungle in a van. It is a road movie where all members of the group take an inflatable screen plus all the necessary equipment to faraway places in the country to show movies. Three of the characters, those from Lima, premiered the movie in commercial theaters with tremendous failure. It was taken off in one week due to few spectators. One day they heard about itinerant movies and it thought this would be a good way to show their movie to areas non contaminated by Hollywood films. With this idea they hire Beto, an Argentinean that has experience with outdoor movies, to help with the technical things they didn’t know. The trip begins with the enthusiasm of those that want to exhibit the movie, and little by little convert it to a reflection of the movies, friendship and loneliness.
