Clarisa Navas's One in a Thousand is exclusively showing on Mubi starting June 18, 2021 in many countries in The New Auteurs series."Las Mil," located in Corrientes, a province at Argentina’s northeast, is the name of the neighbourhood where I grew up and where I experienced many of the situations that happen in the film. But these are not only my own personal stories, they are also experiences of the people who made the film with me.When I was a teenager and I wrote in a notebook the things that happened to me, making fiction worked to illuminate a context that was otherwise very sad.At that time, The World seemed to squeeze my heart and say that many things would not be possible. Sometimes an encounter with another person saves your life, changes the way you think and feel. Between those aisles and faint lights, one of...

The miraculous prospects of international funding initiatives and the opportunities and pitfalls offered by streaming platforms were among the topics discussed by leading Argentine producers during an online Ventana Sur panel on Thursday.
Diego Dubcovsky of Varsovia Films, Santiago Gallelli of Rei Cine and Paula Zyngierman of Maravillacine also looked back at the dynamic New Argentine Cinema wave that characterized the 1990s, and addressed the role of state funding for the sector, and the silver lining of the Covid-19 crisis.
Already racked by crippling inflation and a plunging peso, the Argentine film industry has been hit hard by the pandemic, which has led to a sharp decline in the cinema admissions and TV advertising that fund the country’s Instituto Nacional de Cinematografia y las Artes Audiovisuals (Incaa).

Berlin — If there’s one thing that marks the Berlinale apart from most of the world’s biggest festivals, it’s the warmth and sophistication of the relation between visiting filmmakers and the Berlin Festival’s huge festival-going public.
This year’s Panorama opening, marked by the world premiere of Argentine Clarisa Navas’ queer drama “One in a Thousand,” was a case in point. As often, the questions asked by the audience were every bit as observant as this at many press conferences. One spectator at the traditional, brief Q & A after the screening, praised the actors’ “incredible” performances, and asked indeed if they were professionals. and Luis Molina, who plays one of the heroine’s cousin’s, is finishing up at the Enerc, the Incaa Argentine film institute film school. When an actor who is starting out becomes a professional is indeed a moot question, Molina reflected.)
