Playback
r: Agustina Comedi
Argentina / 2019. / dokumentarni film / 13′
U Córdobi, daleko od argentinske prijestolnice, kraj vojnog režima obećava proljeće kojeće kratko potrajati. “La Delpi” je jedina preživjela od grupe transrodnih žena i drag queen prijatelja_ica, koji_e su počeli umirati od AIDS-a krajem 80-ih. U katoličkom i konzervativnom gradu, grupa Kalas izrađivala je svoje oružje i rovove od improviziranih haljina i lip-synca. Danas slike jedinstvenih i nepoznatih snimki nisu samo oproštajno pismo, već i manifest prijateljstva.
In Córdoba, far from the Argentinian capital, the end of a military regime promises a spring that lasts very little. “La Delpi” is the only survivor of a group of transgender women and drag queen friends, who began to die of AIDS in the late 80s. In a Catholic and conservative city, the Kalas Group made their weapons and trenches out of improvised dresses and playbacks.Today the images of a unique and unknown footage are not only a farewell letter, but also a friendship manifesto.
