November 5 - 11, 2021
BAM Rose Cinemas
Presented by the Brooklyn Academy of Music and Cinema Tropical
With the Support of the Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies (CLACS)
at New York University (NYU)
Celebrating the 20th anniversary of Cinema Tropical, the leading presenter of Latin American cinema in the United States, BAM presents unique and playful pairings of feature-length and short narrative, documentary, and experimental films that challenge traditional tropes of Latin American culture and politics.
Addressing issues of race, privilege, the indigenous experience, history, domestic service, and narcos, among other topics, Uncharted Cartographies offers novel ways to think about and creatively remap conceptions of Latin America in order to better reflect the often overlooked heterogeneity of the region.
Featuring films from Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, Peru, the United States, Paraguay, and Uruguay.
Programmed by Jesse Trussell, BAM Senior Programmer, Film; and Carlos A. Gutiérrez, Executive Director, Cinema Tropical. Special thanks to Cecilia Barrionuevo.
All screenings at:
BAM Rose Cinemas
30 Lafayette Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11217
