The Carnival
Gualeguaychú: El país del carnaval
“Unleash your inner exhibitionist.”
Synopsis
Berger approaches Carnival with painterly precision and vitality, yet the focus is not on the parade itself but on the preparations - the anticipation, the hours leading up to the event where bodies let loose and transform. The film turns the eve into a source of mystery and visual delight.
