About the Films:
Asamblea: Ocupar es Resistir:
After the popular rebellion of the 19th and 20th of December 2001, all over the country neighbourhood assemblies were formed
spontaneously around the slogan "That they all leave!" ("Que se vayan todos!")
This documentary follows the Assembly of Villa Crespo, when on the 13th of July of 2002, after six months of meeting in the
streets, it decides to occupy an abandoned branch property of the bank of Province of Buenos Aires, that has been used as a political centre of Duhalde, in that moment interim president, after the escape of Fernando de la Rúa. This way the assembly manages to confront the government with its legitimate right.
This documentary has been made from the inside by members of the assembly itself. It is unique in registering a pursuit of an assembly movement after the social explosion of 2001 and it tells how the
fight against the neoliberal system in Argentina continues.
Direction: Grupo de Cine Insurgente
Duration: 30 minutes, 2004
Subtitles: English/Italian
Uso mis Manos, Uso mis Ideas:
In 1973 a group of popular militants started a literacy project for adults in the province of Neuquén, Argentina. Using the Cuban experiences and the ideas developed by Paulo Freire in the 60's, the
group learned how to read and to write, the two important tools for social transformation. Raúl Rodriguez decided to film this experience, as he thought it could benefit other communities.
30 years later, 'Uso mis Manos, Uso mis Ideas' tells the story through the testimonies of the participants; how did they experience the project and what happened after it was shut down. The documentary also describes the political events that constitute the historical
memory of a town's struggle.
This documentary has won two prices, one at the Italian 'Festival dei Diritti' and one at the Second Telefestival Iberoamericano.
Direction: Mascaró, Cine Americano
Duration: 55 minutes, 2003
Subtitles: English/Italian/Portuguese
