Fósforos (O una problemática para la sociedad del ocio)
In 1972, a small group of young students from the UNL, riding in a dilapidated Gordini, arrived at a deserted rural area near Estación Matilde (Santa Fe) to film a short film on the theme of leisure, inspired by texts by Cesare Pavese. From the silent images emerge the exploration of homoeroticism and the male nude as aesthetic-political dimensions that contrast with the canonical production of the Institute and its time. The short was never finished and released, until it was found in 2025.
Cast: Carlos Fluxa, Joel Acosa, Juana Obrutsky
