The Streets

Las calles could be regarded as a film about words, about describing and naming, about secrets and confessions, and about language as the matter of memory. In a dialogue between generations, young people are responsible for elaborating the question, and School is the place that tries to come up with a technique for it. In turn, the elderly answer through their stories, which are basically the story of the town. And like the word –which is always a fiction– builds a reality, the film sustains its tone on that intermediate area in which a fictional setting provides the conditions for the pure documentary genre to mark the pace and reach out to people.

Incomunicados

A defect within Celutel, the Telecommunication Corporation, affects cell phone lines starting with area code 153. Users from Cordoba, struggle to communicate and this leads to many absurd situations around the Corporation and its employees; who try to solve the user's problems; and at the same time, their own problems. With neurotic and paradoxical situations, taken to the absurd, Incommunicado is a comedy that plays with the communication phenomena.
