Overview
From the rediscovery of Argentine documentary cinema, cruelly persecuted and hidden by the Argentine dictatorship, filmmakers from very different political and social backgrounds embarked on a collective aesthetic and counter-information movement that accompanied the struggles against the neoliberal project of the 1990's and uprising of December 19 and 20, 2001. From this movement, a reactivation of Argentine documentary filmmaking was generated, which today, almost coming full circle, is more present than ever.
