Synopsis
Emi Martínez: The Kid Who Stops Time
Emiliano, a dreamy boy from Mar del Plata, became the ‘Dibu’ we all know today, one of the great heroes of Argentine football. Written by Hernán Casciari and directed by Gustavo Cova, it tells the story of this kid who discovers he has the power to stop time and argues with a ball that reminds him of all the challenges he has ahead. With a combination of animated sequences created by Liniers, archival footage, and interviews with his friends…
Niccolò
A gifted musician's pursuit of fame traps him in the audience's demands—until a broken violin forces him to choose between hollow applause and true artistic freedom. A metaphorical tale of ambition and its consequences, Niccolo follows Niccolo, a talented musician consumed by a relentless desire for fame. As he climbs the ladder of success, he becomes a prisoner of the audience’s adoration, sacrificing his well-being for their applause.
