LATEXOS

Under the influence of Chris Marker, in LATEXOS we promote the interaction between those images and sounds that, subtly and delicately, aspire to nurture us avoiding any orthodoxy or dogma.

Documentaries about European communities share the spotlight with fictional proposals in the 8th edition of Novos Cinemas. The daily life of a population from Extremadura (Spain), that tries to adapt to a rural area transformation that shows an uncertain future for its younger population, finds a certain echo in the research and remembrance protocols of a certain event in the history of the 20th century proletariat that occurred in an unknown Swiss town. For its part, the fiction part reveals its interest in emotional itineraries: the vicissitudes of a heterogeneous group of young people from Buenos Aires who orbit around a musician friend, or the meetings and conversations of human beings who share their taste for telling and listening to stories.
