“La Ciénaga” Ocala Screening
2023-03-21 19:00 | FL

About the Film

“La Ciénaga”(NR, Argentina, 2001, 103 min.)
In her debut film, Lucrecia Martel established her astonishingly vital and original voice with exquisite cinematography. This comedy-drama, which follows a bourgeois extended family summering at their decrepit country estate in Argentina’s high plains, is actually a visceral take on class, nature, sexuality and the ways that political turmoil and social stagnation can manifest in human relationships. Watch trailer here.
For a full series list and more information on the Ira Holmes International Film Series, contact Wendy Adams at 352-873-5800, ext. 1546, or visit www.CF.edu/filmseries.
