Move over Silverdocs. Within walking distance from my house is a latin American film festival called, Florianópolis Audiovisual Mercosul. (They're working on the name)
I checked out a "flick" called Matar a Todos (kill them all) The film was about The conspiracy and corruption of the post-pinochet governments of Argentina, Chile and Uruguay. (hehe U-R-Gay).It had both Portuguese and English subtitles being shown simultaneously.
The film didn't have to much significance to me but my friends from Chile were taking pictures with the directors and actors after the movie. So,I guess they like crappy movies in Chile. Just kidding. I had been listening to an interview on Fresh Air and the commentator "commentaded" about how at Cannes everybody was reppin' their local film industry, So I kind of understood what he was talking about. So when your country only releases three movies a year you've got to love it like only a mother would.
Anyways the scene that got the biggest reaction from the crowd was a close up shot of succulent beef being cut. The collective stomachs of the mouth-watering audience began to growl in chorus.
