The Finger Lakes Environmental Film Festival (FLEFF) has formed a new collaborative partnership with the Museo del Cine Archive in Buenos Aires, Argentina to showcase silent and classic films. 

Argentina is a country with a long, vibrant, and internationally important filmmaking tradition, and the current explosion of form and genre shifting work in the Argentine New Wave.

This year at FLEFF, two films bookending one hundred years of cinema will be screened:  El Ultimo Malon, a rare 1917 film about an indigenous uprising; and Temporada de Caza (Hunting Season), a 2017 film by Natalia Garagiola about a teenager in Patagonia. Both screening at Cinemapolis. 

Head Archivist Andres Levinson will be on hand, participating in FLEFF LAB FRIDAY on campus, and doing the post-screening discussions after the films at Cinemapolis.
