Open Air Argentine Cinema
The 10th BAFICI adds a new attraction to its lineup: a new screening venue, outdoors and located at one of the emblematic spots of Buenos Aires: Pasaje Carlos Gardel, a passage located in the very traditionally Buenos Aires barrio (district) of Abasto, the birthplace of the “Zorzal Criollo” (Gardel) and a site of ongoing tourist appeal.
During the two weekends of the festival, we will be screening Argentine films awarded by BAFICI in previous years, as well as “Luca”, a documentary about the fascinating life of Italian musician Luca Prodan, famous in Argentina for his work at the helm of Sumo, a band that was key in the evolution of Argentine rock in the 1980’s.
Saturday 12
4 pm “Mundo grúa”, by Pablo Trapero (1999, 88’)
6 pm “Luca”, by Rodrigo Espina (2008, 90’)
