Southern District poster
6.0

In La Paz -as opposed to many other cities- the rich live below, which is the Southern District. Life goes on without major mishaps in a large house surrounded by a beautiful garden. It is a wonderful world, a great bubble of comfort, where different personal spheres coexist: the mother, along with her three children and the Aymara inhabitants of the house. The drama surfaces slowly, without narrative ploys, observing day-to-day activities until internal and external forces make the bubble burst. The film relates the story of the final days of an upper-class family, at a time when the country is undergoing social changes.

Mi mar adentro poster
NR

While the Bolivian flag is raised by military hands on a pontoon of the Bolivian Naval Force, a civilian swimmer is ritually prepared to enter the waters of Lake Titicaca naked to cross them towards the Island of the Sun. This short film is the record of a poetic act that connects a deep wound Bolivia faces due to its denial of access to the sea with a war conflict still vivid in the memories of Argentines.
