Latin American Film Festival

Join us for the 19th Latin American Film Festival at the University of Melbourne.

Join us for the screening of the film 'Boreal', from Paraguay, as part of the Latin American Film Festival 2024.The Paraguayan movie screening will take place in the Malaysian Theatre, Glyn Davis Building, Parkville Campus, University Melbourne, from 6 - 8 pm on Thursday, 24 October.Benjamin, his uncle César and Genaro are taken by their Mennonite Patron to a desolate place in the Paraguayan Chaco, where they will stay for days building a fence. The days are long, the progress slow. Benjamin cannot get used to the hard, boring work and the oppressive silence of this arid region. He wants to leave. El Patron returns 30 days after leaving them; dissatisfied with the quality of the work, he tells the trio they need to stay three more days to complete the job. César and Genaro stayed... but like Vladimir and Estragon in Beckett's Waiting for Godot, for them the wait will be eternal this time.If you have any questions about this event, please contact Israel Holas at iholas@unimelb.edu.au, or the event support officer Anna Henger at annanicola.henger@unimelb.edu.auThe School of Languages and Linguistics strives to host inclusive, accessible events that enable all individuals to engage fully.
