NEW FEATURED FILM
CASTLING by Pablo Bondesan
ARGENTINA, April 1982. While the former Falkland conflict turns into a war, Dr. Fernandez arrives at Juan’s farm in La Pampa after a long time of absence. A few words are spoken, and the doctor asks Juan to accommodate his son Emilio for an indefinite period of time. Without any questions, Juan agrees to host Emilio in his house. However, his son, Lisandro, does not feel as accommodating.
The film explores a time period of confusion and pain that leads all four characters to take surprising actions. The story tells a boomerang of fate.
