Overview
You know whose film industry has been quietly kicking a bunch of ass? Argentina. Say hello to the only South American country to ever win an Oscar. Producing an average of 35 films per year (Australia clocks around 25), from badass thrillers to award-winning, socially conscious badass thrillers, Argentina has edged out Mexico and become the flagship of Latin American cinema.
Filmoteca, ACMI's Spain/Portugal/South American-focussed cinema program, is now hosting a program of the freshest shorts to come out of this growing industry. The next generation of Argentinian filmmakers is vibrant and diverse. Here you'll find relentlessly awkward comedy drama from the ever-quirky Martin Piyoransky, alongside a full complement of amazing animations from the stop-motion genius Juan Pablo Zaramella and CGI team Gervasio Rodriguez Traverso & Pablo A. Diaz, as well as a few other surprises, making for an engaging and fun hour of new cinema.
