This course focuses on a burst of creative expression across different cinematic genres in Argentina from 1995 to the present. Renowned as the New Argentine Cinema (NAC), which continues to regenerate imaginatively, this aesthetic tendency has evolved and propagated its founders’ inimitable artistic and thematic explorations in unexpected ways. We will illuminate distinctive contributions to the formation and evolution of NAC, including those of Lucrecia Martel, Lisandro Alonso, Albertina Carri, Adrián Caetano, Martín Rejtman, and Pablo Trapero.
