Sebastián Silva lanza su esperada Crystal Fairy en el IFC Center de NYC y esperamos pueda verse en otros cines del país. La actuación de Michael Cera ha despertado buenos comentarios así como el el tema de la cinta. Una película de camino y alucinaciones.
About: On a trip through Chile a boorish American expat named Jamie (Michael Cera) and three Chilean brothers plan to set off in search of the prized San Pedro cactus and its promise of beachy hallucinations. But in the previous night’s drunken stupor Jamie invites a free- spirited fellow American (Gaby Hoffmann) along on their mescaline-driven road trip, and her devil-may-care worldview gives them more of an adventure than any of them had bargained for.

Kerouac’s beloved Beat epic, one of the most iconic and influential of all American novels, finally comes to the big screen in this jazzy, freewheeling adaptation from Salles (The Motorcycle Diaries) and executive producer Francis Ford Coppola. Aspiring writer Sal Paradise (Sam Riley) falls under the spell of “the mad ones”: intoxicating ex-con Dean Moriarty (Garrett Hedlund) and his seductive wife Marylou (Kristen Stewart). The three hit the road to discover the world—and themselves. Featuring Kirsten Dunst, Amy Adams, Viggo Mortensen and Steve Buscemi.

When I arrived in NYC back in 1993 this case was already part of the city's lore. I learned a bit about the case by reading reports on the accused and the victim, her slow way to recovery and then about her book, I am the Central Park Jogger. I remember reading about these 5 young people accused of a crime they insisted, and many believed, did not commit. Time will prove them right. Then, the real perpetrator confessed...
This documentary is a look at our city during an era full of paranoia. A city collapsing on every level where justice was something but justice.... and where minorities (surprise!) were in a serious disadvantage.

THE CENTRAL PARK FIVE > In 1989, five black and Latino teenagers were arrested and charged for brutally attacking and raping a white female jogger in Central Park. News media swarmed the case, calling it “the crime of the century.” But the truth about what really happened didn’t become clear until after the five had spent years in prison for a crime they didn’t commit. This story of injustice finally gets the telling it deserves. The film recently made headlines when lawyers for New York City attempted to subpoena its outtakes for an ongoing lawsuit. A story whose aftershocks continue to shape the city, this promises to be one of the most high-profile documentaries of the year. (119 min). In person: Ken Burns, Sarah Burns, David McMahon and members of the Central Park Five.

- DROUGHT/ CUATES DE AUSTRALIA (Everado González, Mexico, 2012, 84 min. In Spanish with English subtitles)
Residents from the ejido (communal land) Los Cuates de Australia in Northeast Mexico perform every year a massive exodus to look for water during drought. In this exile, men, women, elders, and children wait for the first drops of water to return to their lands, metaphor of a small town that hides from death.
August 10 - 16
- WE WOMEN WARRIORS/ TEJIENDO SABIDURÍA (Nicole Karsin, USA/ Colombia, 2012, 79 min. In Spanish with English subtitles)
We Women Warriors follows three native women caught in the crossfire of Colombia's warfare who use nonviolent resistance to defend their peoples' survival. Colombia has 102 aboriginal groups, one-third of which face extinction because of the conflict. Trapped in a protracted predicament financed by the drug trade, indigenous women are resourcefully leading and creating transformation imbued with hope. We Women Warriors bears witness to neglected human rights catastrophes and interweaves character-driven stories about female empowerment, unshakable courage, and faith in the endurance of indigenous culture. August 10 - 16.
