EL DÍA QUE ME QUIERAS The Day You’ll Love Me directed by Leandro Katz (USA, 1997, 30 min) |
|
| A non-narrative film investigating death and the power of
photography, El Día Que Me Quieras is a meditation on the last
pictures taken of Ernesto Che Guevara, as he lay dead on a table surrounded by his captors, in Bolivia in 1967. Not a political
documentary in the traditional sense, the film alternates between evocation and straight reportage, centering on an interview with the Bolivian photographer Freddy Alborta. International Jury’s
Coral Prize, La Habana Film Festival. Screening with introduction by director Leandro Katz in Prof. Piglia’s seminar SPA 345. 3:00 - 4:20 pm Enrolled students only. |
