“New York’s Neighboring Scenes series has quickly become
one of the most exciting bits of any year’s film festival schedule”
—Joshua Brunsting, CriterionCast
Now in its sixth year, Neighboring Scenes is Film at Lincoln Center's wide-ranging showcase of contemporary Latin American cinema, highlighting impressive recent productions from across the region. This selective slate of premieres exhibits the breadth of styles, techniques, and approaches employed by Latin American filmmakers today, and spans a wide geographic range, featuring established auteurs as well as fresh talent from the international festival scene.
This year’s edition of the festival kicks off a series of events to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Cinema Tropical, the leading presenter of Latin American cinema in the U.S., with a special screening of Silvia Prieto (1999), the landmark film by Argentine director Martín Rejtman.
Organized by Carlos A. Gutiérrez and Cecilia Barrionuevo.
