SUMMARY:Memories of Underdevelopment
DESCRIPTION:Memories of the Underdevelopment tells the story of Sergio\, an upper-class intellectual who – a year after the Castro-led revolution – decides not to leave the country\, even though his parents and estranged wife have escaped to Miami. Alienated from the major socio-political upheaval that is transforming the reality that surrounds him\, Sergio is a misfit\, caught between a past he half-heartedly attempts to maintain\, and the inevitable changes he cannot or will not embrace. His only income is the compensation he receives following the nationalization of his property. Unable to finish the novel he’s writing\, Sergio spends his time chasing women\, observing the outside world and reflecting on his own life\, trying to understand what is happening to his country and himself.

SUMMARY:LOVE\, WOMEN AND FLOWERS
DESCRIPTION:Directors: Marta Rodríguez and Jorge Silva\nColombia | 1984 | Spanish with English subtitles | 52 min + 20 mins Interview | Documentary \nWhat is the cost of beauty? In the 80’s\, the floriculture industry was booming in Colombia and was internationally acclaimed. However\, behind the idyllic image of abundance\, the reality is different. The documentary film denounces the use of pesticides in the flower fields of the Colombian savannah as well as the working conditions of the mostly female workforce. Starting from an anthropological approach\, the film collects during five years the testimonies of the workers and follows them in their daily life. A pioneering film about emancipation\, dignity and the fight for the environment. \nIn 2023 LOVE\, WOMEN AND FLOWERS was the first Colombian film to be presented at the Classics section\, at the Cannes Film Festival. \nThis restored copy includes an interview with director Marta Rodríguez at the end of the film\, who is still thriving at 92.
