Adrián Suar against the omnibus law due to the defunding of culture: “I hope it doesn’t come out”

“I hope it doesn’t come out This law lacks reflection. It lacks debate. They mess with culture as if culture in a country were nothing. It was only a tangible economic value,” said Suar in La noche de Mirtha, Mirtha Legrand’s program.

The actor and producer considered that “Seeing culture in economic terms impoverishes” and that “Argentina is a country that cares about culture.”

“People who are at home from all social levels have a lot of culture,” he said.

Suar also criticized that “It is said that culture is useless.” “The Argentine people paid much more for the errors of economists than for the works of their artists,” he noted.

Despite his criticism, Suar expressed a conciliatory message towards President Milei. “I feel that the president must have some sensitivity to the issue of culture”, said. “First because he is dating an artist, who is Fátima Flores, who is an artist who has sensitivity,” she added.

Suar concluded his speech by assuring that “if Leonardo Favio had not been supported by culture he would not have been Leonardo Favio.”

Polka Closing

Recently, Adrián Suar spoke about the continuity of the company, stating: “Polka did not close. It’s a see you soon. It is an end of the cycle with all the sadness. I had already been grieving for two or three years. But I feel like at some point I’m going to come back, I don’t know when. In 2024 there will be no fiction. I don’t know 2025, but I hope to return at some point. I have to reinvent myself.”

“Although I make films, I have some ideas for some platforms that buy me, I am going to produce in Spain (…) When I can I hope to return, but I don’t know when. I hope it will be a see you soon,” Suar expressed and then referred to his emotional state regarding this decision: “Personally, I needed to turn the page. There were many years of doing many strips in a row, which is what I love the most. And I hope to live up to it.”
