The documentary “Underwater Stranded” added a new feature for next week. It will be within the framework of an initiative launched by the UNLP.
The documentary film that produces 0221.com.ar next to Root Project it was a success so far. All the functions of April are sold out but those who have not obtained a ticket for any will have the possibility to see it since it was opened a new function.
The authorization of a new date is given within the framework of the talks and events offered by the National University of La Plata for the ten years of the city flood.
The documentary will be screened on monday 10 April at 14 hours in classroom -203, located in the basement of the Sergio Karakachoff Building of the UNLP. You can reserve your spot by click here.
“Desamparados Bajo el Agua” premiered on April 2 at the Cine Select, in Pasaje Dardo Rocha, on the tenth anniversary of the tragic night.
Based on the testimonies of the flooded, relatives of the deceased, survivors and specialists, “Desamparados bajo el agua” tells and revives stories, images, sensations, knowledge, opinions and complaints in a narrative that starts from the present and continues until the day of the tragedy. During that terrifying night, entire families fought to save themselves and others in the face of the vertiginous rise of the water, and those stories are the ones that are revived through first-person interviews. The documentary goes through a painful journey through current experiences, learning, fears and concerns, and opens the doors to an urgent social call to raise awareness and think about the necessary strategies to avoid another possible urban catastrophe.
“We try to emphasize that it is a State policy, mainly because it should be an issue that goes through the three levels (municipal, provincial and national), and that also went through the different efforts: it is not a matter of the previous government , of the current one or of the one to come; the same interviewees tell you ‘there is no crack here’. It is not a matter of a political party but of a state institution”, the director also remarks.
