Encuentro (2011)

Overview

Two strangers are washed together in a dreamlike space of words, bodies, and ideas as they explore the true nature of difference, acceptance, and free will after a chance meeting in a Buenos Aires plaza. Encuentro tells the story of the coming together of two worlds, that according to social dictates should never truly interact, and explores what happens as a result of that interaction. Encuentro is the collision of real and surreal, black and white, masculine and feminine, native and foreign, and examines the dynamic between 'in' and 'out', accepted and marginalized, as it contemplates the power, the fragility, and the desires that each possess.
