Museo Moderno's 2025 Film Cycle Explores Visual Arts and Theater Intersections

Museo Moderno presents "El cine es otra cosa 2025," a film cycle curated by Gabriela Golder that explores hybrid territories where visual arts intersect with theater. Running from October 17-19, 2025, the program features four films that challenge conventional narratives through diverse approaches to symbolism, fragmentation, documentary, and fiction. Lola Arias's "Teatro de guerra" (2018) documents six Argentine and British veterans of the 1982 Falklands War reconstructing memories through artistic collaboration. Martín Sastre's "Miss Tacuarembó" (2010) follows a Uruguayan girl's dreams of escape through beauty pageants. Liv Schulman's "Un círculo que se fue rodando" (2024) presents a 35-minute urban performance in Buenos Aires's Microcentro district. Ulises de la Orden's "El juicio" (2023) examines Argentina's 1985 trial of military junta leaders using archival footage. The cycle aligns with the museum's 2025 exhibition program "Arte Es Teatro," emphasizing active spectator engagement and destabilized narratives. Screenings include presentations by Gema Juárez Allen (producer of "Teatro de guerra") and Leopoldo Estol. Tickets are available through entradasba.buenosaires.gob.ar. Technical details vary by film, with formats including HD, 8K video, and 4K, and runtimes from 35 to 177 minutes. The program examines how cinema serves as a stage where realities are performed, rehearsed, and contested through collective and individual perspectives.
