Argentina

TWO SHOTS FIRED [Dos disparos]

After a ten-year hiatus, legendary Argentine filmmaker Martín Rejtman (THE MAGIC GLOVES, SILVIA PRIETO, RAPADO) returns with this wry existential comedy. After a night of partying, 16-year-old Mariano finds a gun and impulsively shoots himself twice, once in the head and once in the chest, but miraculously survives. This improbable act sets off a wickedly quotidian chain reaction as his friends and family deal dispassionately with the aftermath. As the film flits from character to character, Rejtman masterfully finds the magic in the mundane. Official Selection, 2014 Locarno, Toronto, New York Film Festivals.
