The German Friend poster
5.4

It’s the late 1950s, and in an affluent and quietly respectable part of Buenos Aires, young Sulamit Löwenstein strikes up a friendship with her next-door neighbour Friedrich over the whereabouts of her family dog. She is the daughter of German-Jewish immigrants to Argentina, he is the son of a senior SS officer, a tragic political legacy from whose shadow both characters struggle to escape over the next three decades. Following the teenaged Friedrich to Germany, Sulamit finds him caught up in the radical politics of late-1960s student life; and she’s forced to make important decisions about her attitude to her homeland when Friedrich returns to Argentina to join the fight against the military junta.

Cemento: The Documentary poster
10.0

CEMENTO lived for nineteen years that spanned three key decades for the democratic history of Argentina. How much of relevance is the rock in this adventure of living in real democracy is difficult to estimate, but rock denounced, rock was containment, rock was a source of pride. Rock is culture and had a house where it developed, CEMENTO. We make CEMENTO - The Documentary - because we think that a people that forgets its milestones is a people destined to fail. We want to reflect in audiovisual format what CEMENT was, its origins, its facilities, the public opinion, its anecdotes and its imprint in the culture, narrated by musicians, producers and workers who gave it life.

An Argentinean born Spaniard, writer and journalist, whose parents were tortured and murdered during the Military Coup, returns to finish a novel about them, with the ambiguous determination to get even with their murderer, a former Sheriff who lives nearby in Patagonia. He and the Sheriff's daughter fall in love. He takes DNA samples of the Girl's family and realizes the truth; she is not their daughter, which means she might have been abducted from her murdered parents. He indirectly feeds her mistrust. The girl travels to Buenos Aires to investigate. She finds out the truth and faces her father, who avows never agreeing on saving those children. On her question, "Who am I?" he says she is a mistake and that she is alive thanks to his decision. It is her who ultimately solves the Writer's conflict in a tragical showdown with the Sheriff.
