Fire Supply

Because podcasts have a limit, a person who loves his mother + his father would want to make ice or steel or else have a cemetery so that his mother does not suffer for anyone.

A Grain of Rice from a House Where No One Has Died

A woman who will die soon tells her three children that she wants to do so with as little intervention as possible. They don't know how much of that desire they will be able to fulfill.

Prodigal Son

Renzo tries to get close to the universe of family and football, which has always seemed alien to him. He wanders between his current life and the one he could have had.

The Face of the Jellyfish

It is no coincidence that the second feature by Argentinian Melisa Liebenthal begins with a quote from “Duino Elegies” by Rilke, who was concerned with existential angst. And, more prosaically, Marina, the film’s young protagonist, is faced with similar anxiety. In fact, her problem is her face. One morning, she discovers her face has changed, and she can no longer recognise herself. Not even her mother can, who bumps into her on the street and says hello to her like she would to any stranger (deadpan, surreal humor is part of the film’s recipe). Marina is thus forced to confront her identity: who is she? Is she determined by her parent’s DNA or by her ID card? Can she be identified by a family portrait, by biometrics or the love of those around her, including her Colombian boyfriend? Is she prettier now?

Wandering Heart

Santiago, gay single father, has reached a tipping point in his life. Reeling from a bitter breakup, he is facing the impending departure of his daughter Laila, with whom he shares a close yet emotionally charged relationship.

Over the course of a chaotic summer divided between Argentina and Brazil, Santiago must learn to let go of Laila so each can find their own freedoms.

The Pleasure Is Mine

Dear Renzo
