Tomorrow at 6:30 p.m., at the San Martín Theater, Susú Pecoraro, Imanol Arias, producer Lita Stantic and part of the “Camila” team will meet in public talk to celebrate the 40th anniversary of its premiere and remembering María Luisa Bemberg, its director.
Among other merits, this was the first film shot in democracy (it began filming on December 11, 1983, and was released on May 17, 1984, with enormous success). To complete the meeting, the Cinema Museum provides some set and costume elements (such as the “bloody” dress) and then a screening will take place. Organized by the City Ministry of Culture.
On Friday almost at midnight, Cine Club Nocturna and Bizarro Man Films will present the restored copy of “No one worried more”excellent tribute from Gustavo Mendoza to the memory of Narciso Ibáñez Mentawho left 20 years ago.
With these two evocations culminates a series of acts of affirmation of national cinema, which began on Thursday at DAC, the directors’ association. There were held the 10 years of Argentine Cinema goes to Schoola creation by DAC that allows children from distant places not only to see a national film, but also to experience what a big screen and dark room performance is like (all put together by the entity’s technicians) and, what’s more, with the presence of some figure from the play they have just seen.
“When an actress appears, the director of the film is as if he were a tripod, they don’t even look at him,” I was joking Gabriel Arbos, alma mater of the program. This started in a school in Lugano, and has reached the entire country. That night, teachers from Lago Puelo, Apóstoles and Esperanza told the experience of their students, none of whom had ever gone to a movie theater, the documentary was seen “Cinema sowing”and a mural was inaugurated with images from a hundred films, ideal to be reproduced in a thousand-piece puzzle.
That Thursday was, precisely, the Argentine Cinema Dayfor the anniversary of “The May Revolution”, by Italian immigrant Mario Gallo1910, and at the Malba a part of another Gallo film, “Civil Death”, restored by the Museo Nazionale del Cinema, in Turin, was seen.
There was a photo exhibition, there were grandson Gerardo, a journalist, the great-grandson, who is filming a biography, and several historians. And on the 25th, at the Cinema Museum, another rescue, “God and the Country”, by Nelo Cosimi, 1931, along with the best known and celebrated “God Repays It,” by Luis César Amadori, with Zully Moreno.
That day he died in Rosario Mario PiazzaDirector of “Miss Olga’s School”, about Olga Cossettini, an exceptional teacher, outside the official programs (she was banned, but today a street in Puerto Madero bears her name). Piazza was also somewhat oblivious to the official guidelines: he did not earn from the premieres, but rather from selling video copies at the end of the teaching conferences.
Before, he made “Papá Gringo,” about an American who protected abandoned children, and then “Mothers with wheels” (victims of accidents or infantile paralysis who still had and raised their children, like his own wife) and other films of true independent cinema.
