Hermia & Helena
Director: Matias Pineiro// Writer: Marias Pineiro
Argentinian filmmaker Matias Pineiro, known for his droll comedies in direct conversation with Shakespeare’s text, seems to be continuing onward in that trend. While his last work, this year’s The Princess of France, which toyed with Love’s Labours Lost, wasn’t as excitedly received as his 2012 film Viola, Pineiro still nails an intriguing modern context with titles and themes. His next, Hermia & Helena, named for two characters from A Midsummer Night’s Dream, apparently filmed in Montana and New York, will be his first English language feature, so we’re expecting confounding elements that further explore shifting ideas about the meaning of nationality.
Cast: Not available.
Producers: Not available.
U.S. Distributor: Rights Available.
Release Date: Though with a significant following and honored with significant critical praise, we’re thinking that even with this Argentina/US co-production he will return to premiere in Locarno.
