Hey All, The National Gallery of Art in Washington DC is showing some films of mine July 21-- information below.
http://www.nga.gov/programs/film/aonstreet.shtm I'm particularly thrilled to be previewing my new feature film, Hasta Nunca (See You Never). Details on that film are below, along with a short trailer ‘Hasta Nunca’ follows Mario Ligetti, a middle-aged DJ in Montevideo, Uruguay whose call-in radio show exposes the city’s “Secrets and Stories.” As Mario’s life becomes more entangled with that of his callers and listeners, his public and private personas are blurred and the intimate nuances of a city and its residents are revealed. The film is the product of a close collaboration between North American filmmaker Mark Street and an Uruguayan cast and crew, led by producer Uzi Sabah and lead actor Rufo Martínez, a real life DJ and television personality. Shot in cinéma vérité style, ‘Hasta Nunca’ takes a deeper look at one of South America’s under represented countries, carefully touching upon local themes like the lingering effectsof the military dictatorship and the illegality of abortion. The film interweaves documentary and fiction, scripted narrative and improvisation, and is as much a portrait of Montevideo as it is the story of one of its chroniclers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpyeBvmwUdQ&feature=youtu.be best, Mark Street www.markstreetfilms.com
