It will surprise absolutely no one to hear that El Pampero Cine has spawned another masterpiece. Mariano Llinás’s BIOGRAFIA DE BORGES isn’t just a phenomenal closeup on JLB, but a manifesto of the collective’s idea of cinema: inventive, playful, thrillingly alive. Venice’s best.

I learnt very little from my teachers in school and later university. Much more from filmmakers, painters, musicians, writers. To them, I remain indebted - for helping me see, think, feel.
