A day of premieres at Punto de Vista
Today is the prémiere of Sergio Oksman´s film Goodbye, America. The film, produced by Elías Querejeta, is a bittersweet portrait of Al Lewis, the actor who played the role of Grandpa in the Monster family. Just a few months before his death, Lewis still makes a living as a vampire and, like his character, he owns the memory of the 20th century enterely.
The Diary films, by David Perlov, are also screened today as prémiere. Perlov is a classic in the documentary cinema history, but his work, nevertheless, has never been showed in Spain. His daughter, Yael Perlov, will present his father´s best known work, Diary (1973-1983). She will be accompanied by Ariel Schwitzer, cinema critic in Cahiers du Cinema.
