IN PRESENCE OF THE DIRECTOR

Public Award – Festival Internacional de Cine de Mar del Plata (Argentina) – 2017
Mention spéciale | Compétition nationale longs métrages – Rencontres internationales du documentaire de Montréal (RIDM) – 2017

Primas is an evocative portrait of two cousins, Rocío and Aldana, Argentinian teenagers who, in the wake of heinous acts of violence that disrupted their childhood, will free themselves from the shadows of their past. Traveling in Argentina and Montreal the girls come of age having revelatory experiences in their everyday lives; learning dance, mime, theatre, circus and visual arts. They express through their bodies what only their imagination, their unique perspective and their unshakable resilience can reveal.

In the presence of

Laura Bari
Réalisatrice | Besofilm

Originally from Argentina, filmmaker and professor Laura Bari has been a resident of Montreal for 30 years. Fascinated by difference and singularity, she chooses cinema to bring together art, culture, education and mental health. In her films, she integrates the real and the imaginary, the duality inherent to the human condition and which inhabits the singular protagonists of her films: ANTOINE (2009) Eyestill films; ARIEL (2013) Parabola, PRIMAS (2018) Greenground. Therefore, poetry imbues hope in the midst of devastation.
