CONTEST : Bienvenue à Los Pereyra

Special presentation with Andrés Livov-Macklin March 11 at 5:00pm

Festivals - RIDM 2009, RVCQ 2010

Charity is not without its side effects. Such is the innovative point of view taken by Andrés Livov-Macklin in his documentary Bienvenue à Los Pereyra.

The lives of the schoolchildren from a poor and remote village in Northern Argentina are disrupted in unforeseen ways when a group of well-to-do girls visit as part of their annual charity mission. The children of Los Pereyra are both delighted and bewildered by their visiting “Godmothers”. Conversely, the young girls and their teachers, though well intentioned, have little understanding of how their visit will change the lives of their hosts.

Friday, March 11 at 5:00pm, director Andrés Livov-Macklin will be here to present his film and answer your questions. The Cinéma Parallèle si offering free passes to this event. To participate, visit the event’s Facebook page (link) and write “Long live the Cinéma Parallèle” on its wall. Good luck!
