Film of the Week: ONE IN A THOUSAND

ONE IN A THOUSAND / LAS MIL Y UNA
A film by Clarisa Navas
(Argentina/Germany, 2020, 120 min. In Spanish with with English subtitles)

”Winner of the Best Picture Award at the 2020 Jeonju International Film Festival, Clarisa Navas’s potent queer drama is set in a housing project in the northeastern Argentine city of Corrientes. The film follows Iris, a basketball-loving 17-year-old teenager who falls for Renata, a woman who is a few years older than her and has a mysterious past. Iris slowly realizes that she will have to overcome her fears and struggle with her insecurities in order to experience first love. One in a Thousand is a story of tenderness in a hostile environment, where desire takes many forms in the darkness and gossip can turn into a weapon.” —Neighboring Scenes, Film at Lincoln Center
