IFFI 52, 018: Charlotte is about an Argentinian actress in search of an aspirational future
She shared a memorable past with the director who launched her into the world of cinema.

16th Third Eye Asian Film Festival: IV
Screenings continued on Day 4, 5 and 6, and two films were memorable. One was a blast from 1956, made by an all-time great, and the other a laudable 2011 effort, shot in his home country, guerrilla style, by a returning prodigy, without permission
