When 47-year-old Fabian Bielinsky died of a heart attack in June 2006, Argentina suffered the major loss of one of its most beloved and successful filmmakers. Tonight's program includes his final film, The Aura.

Second feature start time: 9:20 PM. The Aura, Bielinsky's final film, is an expertly crafted thriller about a shy taxidermist who gets to realize his dream of carrying out the perfect robbery. (134 mins., 35mm)

One of the last films produced before Argentina's economic collapse, Nine Queens is a smart, entertaining, and (because of its timing) prophetic movie about scams and con artists. (114 mins., 35mm)
