The Strategic Legacy of Juan Perón

In 1971, during the Spain of the last Franco, Solanas and Getino frequented Juan Perón's residence in Puerta de Hierro to film - secretly - two long documentaries with the former president. They were six months of travel between Madrid and Rome, where the montage was made, hiding the negatives that were filmed and avoiding López Rega's claim to take possession of them. In the summer of 2012, Solanas began filming The Legacy in the residence that Perón and Evita built in San Vicente in 1947. During three years the film was being put together and at the same time photographic archives and documents were investigated. For the first time, fragments of unpublished recordings of the informal conversations that Solanas and Getino had with Perón are used.
Released : 25th-Feb-2016

Social Genocide

After the fall of the military dictatorship in 1983, successive democratic governments launched a series of reforms purporting to turn Argentina into the world's most liberal and prosperous economy. Less than twenty years later, the Argentinians have lost literally everything: major national companies have been sold well below value to foreign corporations; the proceeds of privatizations have been diverted into the pockets of corrupt officials; revised labour laws have taken away all rights from employees; in a country that is traditionally an important exporter of foodstuffs, malnutrition is widespread; millions of people are unemployed and sinking into poverty; and their savings have disappeared in a final banking collapse. The film highlights numerous political, financial, social and judicial aspects that mark out Argentina's road to ruin.

What Do You Know About Me

Until the 1970s, Italian cinema dominated the international scene, even competing with Hollywood. Then, in just a few years, came its rapid decline, the flight of our greatest producers, a crisis among the best writer-directors, the collapse of production. But what are the true causes and circumstances of this decline? In an attempt to provide an answer to this question, Di Me Cosa Ne Sai strives to depict this great cultural change. Begun as a loving examination of Italian cinema, the film transformed into a docu-drama that alternates between interviews with the great names of the past and fragments of cultural and political life of the last 30 years. It is a travel diary that shows Italy from north to south, through movie theatres; television-addicted kids; Berlusconi and Fellini; shopping centers; TV news editors; stories of impassioned film exhibitors and directors who fight for their films; and interviews with itinerant projectionists and great European directors.
