Alejandra Almirón

In Costa Rica, Panchita has just turned 109 and hopes for a visit from two of her children: Pablo, 93 years old, and Calixto, 88 years old. Sarita, who is 93, has no hesitation in confessing her love for Denis, a young policeman. Pachito’s daughter, fearing that something may happen to her 98-year-old father, tries to prohibit him from continuing horse-riding. In Sardinia, for his 93rd birthday, Adolfo wants to fulfil his dream of flying a plane. In Okinawa, Tomi, 93 years old, cannot recover from the death of her first son. Her friend Haru, who is 98, encourages her to return to the pop group formed of the island’s grandmothers.

The year is 1896. In the dense jungle of Paraguay a three years old Ache girl survives a slaughter perpetrated by white settlers. The girl is named Damiana by her captors. Anthropologists from the La Plata Museum of Natural Sciences in Argentina take her as an object of scientific interest in the context of their racial studies. Later she is handed over to a family where she grows up as a maid. In 1907, at the age of 14, she is committed to a mental institution. There she is photographed naked just two months before her death from tuberculosis. Once dead her body is studied in La Plata and in Berlin. One hundred years later, an anthropology student identifies part of her remains in the La Plata museum. Her head is found soon after at Charite Hospital in Berlin.

During 11 days and with a small group of collaborators, Alejandro Montiel registered the holidays of a group of elders at Chapadmalal, a traditional summer resort in Argentina.

O documentário desenha o retrato de alguns de músicos excepcionais de tango, incluindo criadores de repertório clássicos e fundadores de uma variedade de estilos e escolas, bem como os membros das bandas e orquestras que alcançaram a fama nos anos 1940 e 1950, na era dourada do tango. Vários protagonistas se tornaram grandes nomes no exterior, enquanto outros restringiram sua atuação ao interior da Argentina. O músico e compositor argentino Gustavo Santaollala (vencedor de dois Oscars por suas músicas para os filmes O Segredo de Brokeback Mountain e Babel) atua como guia, para apresentar as grandes estrelas do famoso ritmo - Leopoldo Federico, Lágrima Ríos e seu violonista Aníbal Arias, além do dueto Libertella e José Luis Stazo.

Argentinean singer and tango legend Ada Falcón disappeared without a trace in 1942 at the height of her career. This is the story of how she was located sixty years later, living in an unexpected way, in an unexpected place.

Llamarada wonders "what if a solar storm similar to the one that occurred in 1859, called the Carrington event, happened in our technology-dependent world today?" A personal and cinematographic journey, introspective and cathartic, of a film editor who suffers from power outages in Buenos Aires and who enters a future and near dystopia.
