North American Premiere!
Director Celina Murga (Ana y los otros) applies her sensitive, observant perspective on young people's behavior and thoughts to her superb foray into nonfiction. Set in the public (or “normal”) school Murga attended in the Argentine city of Parana (also the nation's first such institution), the pic is cinema verite par excellence, eagerly curious to take in whatever happens in front of the camera, yet also satisfyingly informed by selectively edited material shot during Argentina's bicentennial year.
Celina Murga (Ana y los otros) aplica su mirada observadora y sensible sobre el comportamiento y los pensamientos de los jóvenes en su magnífica incursión en la no-ficción. Situado en la escuela pública (o “normal”) a la que Murga asistió en la ciudad argentina de Paraná (también la primera escuela “normal” del país), su film es “cinema verité” por excelencia, con un entusiasmo y curiosidad por absorber todo lo que ocurra frente a su cámara.
