A documentary about Bielinsky’s cinema without Bielinsky
How is it possible to tell a story without its protagonist? A year after premiering his second film, Bielinsky, who was on a work trip in San Pablo, Brazil, died of a heart attack while he slept. Years later, Darín revealed that he had talked with the director the night before his death, a talk in which he told him that he had “a black comedy in his head” that was going to love him. However, he promised that once he returned to Argentina, he would share the details. This never happened.

You don’t have to stop at everything that could have been, but what it was. “Nine Auras” It is a tribute to his only two works, but also to his career as director who, although it was brief, managed to stand out and thus, endure to this day. Perhaps it is because their stories maintain and reaffirm the national essence. Or that proposes to convert the cinematographic experience into a sensory. Or maybe the Bielinsky phenomenon does not have to look for explanations, but you simply have to celebrate it because not every day someone like him appears. It is not about quantity, but of quality. Without knowing how long I had, he knew how to take advantage of every second.
HBO Max has already announced the prompt arrival of this Documentary led by Mariano Frigerio. Now we just have to wait.
