Between Creole glamour and fiery speeches, this is how the Politeama promises to look tonight 19th Sur Awards Ceremony of the Argentine Film Academyto be transmitted by TNT and Max from 9pm. An extensive ceremony is anticipated, considering the number of awards and tributes planned, and the number of participants who plan to give their opinion and raise the alarm about the current management of INCAA.
The fact that this event was not broadcast on public television, but on two popular Warner Bros services, not only shows the poor relationship between the people of the film industry and those of the Government, but also indicates the interest of the foreign media and its extensive audience in our artists.
As the main attraction tonight, the Academy, which celebrates 20 years since its refoundation, announces special tributes for Ricardo Darin, Charly Garciathe directors Carmen Guarini and Adolfo Aristarainand three already classic national films: “The Truce” (50 years old), “Camila” (40) and “Wild Tales” (10), which will be respectively represented by Ana María Picchio, Susú Pecoraro and Leo Sbaraglia (why not Rita Cortese?). Interesting fact, all three made it to the Oscar antechamber.
