Mexico’s “All the Fires” and “We Shall Not Be Moved” and Chile’s “Sariri” look like buzz titles at this year’s Ventana Sur Primer Corte and Copia Final, the biggest single industry draws at Ventana Sur, which is both Latin America’s most important movie market and a springboard for selection at at Sundance, Berlin and Cannes.
Backed by the Cannes Film Market and Festival and Argentina’s Incaa film agency, Primer Corte and Copia Final unspool over Nov. 28-Dec. 2 in Buenos Aires.
Of best known titles, Copia Final features “Malta,” a troubled young woman’s drama and second feature from Colombia’s Natalia Santa whose debut, “The Dragon Defence,” played Cannes 2017 Directors’ Fortnight.
Argentine Juan Sebastian Torales’ “Almamula” was a 2019 San Sebastian Forum winner.
The main takeaway from this year’s double section pix-in-post lineup, however, is that Latin America’s spectacular surge in new directorial talent shows no signs of abating.
