"A near masterpiece... subversively funny!"--FILM COMMENT ON MAGIC GLOVES

Second feature start time: 8:40 PM. One of the "founders" of New Argentine Cinema in the early 1990s, Martin Rejtman is a precise filmmaker of absurdist comedies that target specific strata of Argentine society. The Magic Gloves follows a group of middle-class friends who, while looking for ways to make ends meet, decide to invest in distributing "magic minis"--tiny gloves that stretch to fit any hand size. (90 mins., 35mm)

In the minimalist deadpan comedy Silvia Prieto, the title character faces an identity crisis as she begins to discover the existence of a number of other women with the same name. (92 mins., 35mm)
