Acting
Two female producers are commissioned to create a short documentary for an exhibition dedicated to RubĂ©n SantantonĂn, an elusive figure of the Argentine avant-garde who died very young, in the late 1960s. However, the client imposes one unexpected condition: the video must be made together with David Lamelas, SantantonĂn’s former collaborator and today an internationally recognized figure of conceptual art. At first, the plan seems clear and limited in scope: Lamelas, accompanied by a young film crew, gathers archival materials, documents the few surviving works, and interviews curators and major artists – such as Luis Felipe NoĂ© and Marta MinujĂn – who, along with SantantonĂn and Lamelas, peopled the legendary scene at the Instituto Torcuato Di Tella. Lamelas gradually realizes that reconstructing the story of his friend also means confronting a series of gaps and contradictions.
After her grandfather's murder, Alma and her husband decide to go away to her childhood cabin. As the days go on, her life spirals into a surreal confusion in which her dreams turn real.
