Now our feature presentation: “La Antena” directed by Argentine cinematographer Esteban Sapir (https://youtu.be/ukeXicKd6fw?si=Le6-jYlneGZGKBf9) It’s mostly silent but there’s some uncaptioned Spanish that I think is simple enough to follow

The script for “La Antena” is only 60 pages long VS the 130 page average for a feature length film. And although it took only 11 weeks to film, it took slightly over a year to complete post-production. It’s heavily influenced by the Silent era work of George Méliès, Fritz Lang, Sergei Eisenstein and German expressionists in general

BTW the cinematography for The Voice is particularly well done and sexy because Esteban Sapir was the director for a lot of Shakira’s music and concert videos in the late 90s-mid 00s

Next we have the avant-garde “Esta Pared no es Medianera” (“The Wall is not a Party Wall”)(1952) directed by Peruvian modernist artist and educator Fernando de Szyszlo (https://youtu.be/mgyoHrJkWIE?si=Lmy-P7GzAl95D1B7) de Szyszlo is now in his 90s and still teaching and painting! Sorry if the print is a little potato-level, it’s the best version I could find with a score.
