For his fifth feature, Argentinean director Pablo Agüero recreates a 1609 witchcraft trail for Akelarre, co-written by Katell Guillou (loosely based on Pierre de Lancre’s On the Inconstancy of Witches: Tableau de l’inconstance des mauvais anges et demons).

Pablo Agüero wraps the shoot for the historical drama Akelarre - Production – Argentina/Spain/France
The Argentinian filmmaker finished principal photography – which took place in the Basque Country, French Basque Country and Navarre – at the end of June; the movie reconstructs a witchcraft trial. Seven weeks were sufficient to shoot Akelarre, the fifth film by renowned Paris-based Argentinian filmmaker Pablo Agüero (Eva Doesn’t Sleep), which is based on a witchcraft trial that took place in northern Spain in 1609. Principal photography began on the Biscay beach of Laga and wrapped in Zarautz, also stopping off at other locations in Navarre and the (French and Spanish) Basque Country. Toplining this historical drama (which conveys a feminist message) are Álex Brendemühl and Amaia Aberasturi, flanked by supporting actors Garazi Urkola, Irati Saez de Urabain, Jone Laspiur, Lorea Ibarra, Yune Nogueiras, Daniel Fanego, Asier Oruesagasti, Iñigo de la Iglesia, Elena Úriz and Daniel Chamorro.

Luis Ortega’s Pedro Almodovar-backed ‘El Angel,’ which premiered at Cannes and screens at this week’s San Sebastian Film Festival, has been selected as Argentina’s submission for consideration for the Academy Award for best foreign language picture.
Sold by Vicente Canales’ Film Factory, produced by Argentina’s K & S and and Pedro Almodovar’s El Deseo and co-produced by Argentine broadcast network Telefe – a quartet with previous Oscars clout – their film “Wild Tales” was nominated for best foreign-language feature in 2015 – “El Ángel” also marks a move into feature film production for Underground Producciones, one of Argentina’s foremost drama series production houses (“El Marginal”).
The film examines the teenage beginnings of Argentina’s longest-serving prisoner, the near-celebrity Carlos Robledo Puch. Dubbed the “Angel of Death” because of his age, baby face and angelic blonde curls, Carlos and his older friend from school, Ramón, started experimenting with petty crime when still in school,...

"We all have a destiny." The Orchard has unveiled an official Us trailer for the Argentinian crime biopic El Angel, which first premiered at the Cannes Film Festival this year. The film also played at the Sarajevo and Toronto Film Festivals, and will next stop by Fantastic Fest in Austin, TX. El Angel tells the story of one of Argentina's most notorious criminals, a boy known as "The Angel of Death" because of his cherubic looks. It all starts with Carlitos at age 17, when he meets a friend in his high school named Ramón and together they form a dangerously charming duo. The young man with the golden curls and the deadly aim was arrested in 1972, having just turned 20, with 11 homicides and over 40 thefts to his name. Starring Lorenzo Ferro as Carlos, along with Chino Darín, Daniel Fanego, Mercedes Morán, Luis Gnecco, Peter Lanzani, and Cecilia Roth. This looks like...

Dependably handsome and pleasingly involving, “The Accused” takes a classic “did-she-or-didn’t-she” murder scenario and mostly focuses on the family dynamics of a young woman accused of stabbing her best friend. Directed with assurance by Gonzalo Tobal (“Villegas”), the film hits the right buttons as it keeps audiences guessing the outcome, generating sympathy for all involved as the pressures of maintaining a façade for the media take their toll. Considerably more invested in criticizing the ways criminal cases are packaged and won in the court of public opinion than in systematically exploring the details of the murder, “The Accused” is solid, straightforward storytelling, certain to do well in Spanish-speaking territories and perhaps beyond.
It’s been two and a half years since 21-year-old Dolores Dreier (actress and pop star Lali Espósito) was first accused of murdering her best friend Camila Nieves after a drunken party, but only now is the...

The Orchard has secured North American rights to Luis Ortega’s “El Angel” following its debut at the Cannes Film Festival. It will debut in the U.S. later this year.
Reviewers in the south of France praised the film for its visual panache and compared its treatment of violence and criminality to the early work of Martin Scorsese and Quentin Tarantino.
“El Angel” tells the true story of Argentina’s longest-serving convicted murderer. It focuses on a baby-faced thief named Carlitos and his strong bond with a schoolmate named Ramon. Together, they will embark on a crime spree, one that only ends after Carlitos has committed over 40 robberies and 11 homicides. His cherubic good looks give him instant celebrity and the nickname “The Angel.”

Luis Ortega has added his film to the strong-contender list in this year’s Un Certain Regard section at Cannes. His film is based on the true story of Carlos Robledo Puch, a baby-faced criminal who was far from being an angel.
Set in Buenos Aires in 1971, we first see 17-year-old Carlitos (Lorenzo Ferro) breaking into a mansion. He’s all blonde curls and kiss-me-quick lips, and we fall for his cherubic features and forgive his fairly innocent pastime of burglary and petty theft. When he returns home, his mum (Cecilia Roth) worries that he is ‘borrowing’ too much stuff and his father (Luis Gnecco) wants him to put a stop to it. Nobody says the word ‘stealing’ and it is clear that this little gift from heaven is able to manipulate his parents, who refuse to acknowledge that their son is a miscreant.

“Doesn’t anyone even care about being free?” muses Carlitos (Lorenzo Ferro) disdainfully as he wanders louchely from room to garishly nouveau-riche room in the house he’s just broken into. The irony is that by the time the closing credits roll on Luis Ortega’s “The Angel,” Carlitos will be the definition of un-free, about to embark on the longest period of incarceration in Argentinian history.
The character is a self-servingly fictionalized version of real-life convicted murderer, rapist, kidnapper and thief Carlos Robledo Puch, who has been in prison for 46 years and who committed the majority of his violent crimes during a year-long spree at the tender age of 19. Ortega’s Carlitos is pitched younger still (he’s a high school student) and many of the grislier details have, rather dubiously, been jettisoned in this slick-surfaced, stylishly designed portrait of a serial killer. But in one key respect, the...

★★☆☆☆ Viggo Mortensen rises to the challenge of playing twins in Argentinian director Ana Piterberg's debut feature Everybody Has a Plan (2012) - even if the drama never quite rises to meet his beguiling performance. It's not the actor's first role in Spanish, but it is his first in the country in which he lived as a child. The tale of a man appropriating his brother's identity, Everybody Has a Plan was also produced by the Danish-American actor who also took control of the subtitling to make sure that nuances were not lost in translation. Pedro (Mortensen) is a country-mouse slowly dying of cancer in a riverside community in the Tigre Delta.
Pedro finds himself willingly ensnared in the nefarious activities of pal and consummate lowlife Adrián (Daniel Fanego). Meanwhile, in the big city, refined town-mouse Agustín (also Mortensen) is a paediatrician suffering a mid-life crisis, whilst doing his best to estrange his wife.

Director: Ana Piterbarg; Screenwriter Ana Piterbarg, Ana Cohan; Starring: Viggo Mortensen, Soledad Villamil, Daniel Fanego, Javier Godino, Sofía Gala; Running time: 118 mins; Certificate: 15
Actors who can genuinely rise above subpar material are few and far between, and Viggo Mortensen is one of them. His soulful lead turn as a German scholar-turned-Nazi sympathizer elevated an otherwise shaky stage adaptation in 2008's Good, and his tongue-in-cheek take on Freud was one of the few redeeming features of David Cronenberg's stilted and misjudged A Dangerous Method.
In Everybody Has a Plan, the feature debut from Argentinian director Ana Piterbarg, we're gifted with not one but two Mortensen performances. This, surely, should be a done deal. So why is the end result - with its enticing blend of character study, crime drama and potboiler plotting - such a joyless chore?
Admittedly, the premise is enough to make you nervous. Frustrated Buenos Aires paediatrician...

Title: Everybody Has a Plan Director: Ana Piterbarg Starring: Viggo Mortensen, Soledad Villamil, Daniel Fanego, Javier Godino, Sofia Gala Castaglione A good number of actresses, including Penelope Cruz, have worked for years in multiple languages. And while it seems a bit less common with actors, recent James Bond villain Javier Bardem scored a Best Actor Oscar nomination for 2010′s “Biutiful” while speaking in his native tongue. But apart from Kristin Scott Thomas – and recently Will Ferrell, who took up Spanish for the comedy “Casa de Mi Padre” — few native English speakers aim to flex their bilingual skills on the big screen. And that’s a big part of the reason writer-director Ana Piterbarg’s “Everybody Has [ Read More ]

Best Laid Plans: Piterbarg Gets Double the Mortensen in Debut
Argentinean director Ana Piterbarg nabs Viggo Mortensen for dual roles in her debut, a slow burn identity thriller, Everybody Has a Plan. Mortensen, having appeared in three previous Spanish speaking features, is a fellow countryman of Piterbarg, having spent his childhood in Argentina. The resulting collaboration may be disappointing to some, as this is a simmering, psychological thriller that banks mostly on constant discomfort and a slowly building menace that permeates the narrative, but this only serves to make the film a unique, fascinating, noir-tinged exercise in the swamps.
Agustin (Mortensen) stars as a doctor in Buenos Aires, who we quickly learn is in a floundering marriage with Claudia (Soledad Villamil). They are about to adopt a baby, something that Claudia is apparently passionate about, a plan that has been gestating for some time. But it turns out that...
