We abide by the rules as set by the RIVM and we will have only 15 guests per screening. You can drop by at Cavia an hour before each screening to make a reservation at the bar. While at our venue, be mindful to remain at 1.5 meter distance from other people. We trust all to be responsible with their health and hygiene check.

THE SEERS

The seers approach a sensitive, hallucinated, hypnotic territory. These forms present us with a particular look, foreign, fantastic, another world in the world, through a delicate work on the atmospheres, the melodies, the sounds, designed in a vital disarrangement of images that become present in particular ways. The known becomes unknown, seen from other lights, heard from other sounds, perceived from other climates. The seers reveal other forms of perception  and work about the possible materialities of the image.

La Plata International Independent Film Festival FestiFreak was established 16 years ago in Buenos Aires (Argentina), with the premise of showing experimental and auteur films that will rarely reach the main cinemas. FestiFreak has become a reference festival within the Argentine film circuit as a true meeting place between authors, works and audiences. FestiFreak supports the purpose of sharing the cinema from its origin and it is what drives it, every year, to look for the films that encourage to elude the conventions and to propose new ways to experience the cinematographic image.

This year, the health situation forces them to expand towards home screens and other coordinates. That is why part of #16FestiFreak will also be developed in partnership with Filmhuis Cavia. From October 9 to 31, FestiFreak will offer a selection of unusual films, which inhabit the margins of current film production, visually provocative, thematically unusual and mostly never seen in Argentina. These films will continue the curiosity of the festival and its audience, despite the distance that separates us.

The curatorship selected for Filmhuis Cavia dives into Argentine and international independent experimental production. We invite you to visit it on October 9th and 10th.
