¿Por Qué Quebró McDonald's en Bolivia?
Executive Producer
In December of 2002, McDonald's had to shut down their restaurants in Bolivia. The company cited financial problems, but the real reasons were to be found elsewhere. Bolivia may be a small, poor nation on the global market, but a country's fierce local food culture can be sometimes a more powerful factor than economic clout. In his first feature-length documentary, Fernando Martinez shows what happened, a story driven by the characters behind the events and their life stories, such as renowned cooks and a review of popular sayings about the Bolivian food. The symbolism is obvious when a multinational giant is 'brought to its knees' by a country's traditions and heritage.
Borrador
Después de varios años de retiro, Roco decide realizar una nueva película. Para lograrlo, buscará a sus compañeros Larsen el director de fotografía, Nacho el camarógrafo, Meta el sonidista y Cacho el siempre leal maquinista. Pero las crisis sociales y personales los han dispersado por extraños y remotos territorios de la realidad. La búsqueda a veces dramática y a ratos divertida llevará a Roco a un encuentro inevitable de vida, muerte y renacimiento. Una jornada emotiva y sorprendente, tan singular como hacer una película.
Amaneció de Golpe
Director
Madrugada del cuatro de febrero de 1992. El más estable de los sistemas democráticos de Latinoamérica se resquebrajó bajo el fuego y el combate. Una noche difícil de olvidar que dejó profundas huellas y marcó el camino que Venezuela vive hoy en día. Una parte del ejército, al mando de un militar golpista, asedió la residencia presidencial con la intención de tomar el poder por la fuerza. La insurrección fue sofocada a tiempo y la intentona golpista fracasó. Pero aquella noche “amaneció de golpe” y para nuestros personajes marcó un antes y un después en sus vidas. La rabia, el miedo y la angustia, les rebelaron aspectos de si mismos que hasta ese entonces desconocían. (Filmoteca Zoowoman)
