The Many Wonderful Lives of Argentine Animation

Nov 2 — Nov 3, 2024

Since its beginnings, Argentine animation has been a hub of inventors, storytellers, and tireless alchemists of the medium. Among the pioneering filmmakers from all ages of Argentine animation here you can discover work by such creators as Quirino Cristiani, Luis Bras, Manuel García, and Juan Pablo Zaramella. Characterized by elegance, visual power, anarchic spirit, and diversity, Argentine animation stands as one of the most vibrant corners of world cinema. This series of four programs features a range of films, from early 20th-century shorts for kids to popular TV shows, commercials, and contemporary work, all ripe for discovery. 

All programs in series guest curated by Juan Manuel Dominguez, unless indicated otherwise.
