Village Recoleta - Vicente López y Junín
Room: 5
Ludmila and Lucas live in a shack in one of the richest areas of Buenos Aires. Ludmila moves around in a wheelchair (she has a bullet inside of her that apparently put her on the chair), even when she doesn’t seem to need it –she does it for no reason, or for begging. Lucas’ job is picking up bones and butcher’s wastes in a truck, and spends most of his time going around the city with an air gun he occasionally uses to threaten, steel, or shoot out some pellets wherever he pleases. Featuring huge performances by Nahuel Pérez Biscayart and Ailín Salas, Lulú is sort of a euphoric celebration of love that depicts the troubles these two free spirits –apparently willing to do anything– go through in order to maintain it. The tensions that exist between regulations and freedom, law and desire, and sickness and health, are here portrayed through the eye of a filmmaker who clearly has found his own cinematographic pulse.
