The 73rd San Sebastian Film Festival is set to open on September 19 with an Argentine fact-based dramedy titled “27 Nights” (“27 noches”). The film, which stars Daniel Hendler, who also directed and co-wrote it, is a Netflix original production. This comes as a surprise to many, as there were predictions last year that few Argentine films would be produced under the country’s new right-wing administration.

Based on the novel by Natalia Zito and inspired by a true story, “27 Nights” follows the story of Martha Hoffman, played by Marilú Marini, a wealthy matriarch who is committed to a psychiatric clinic by her daughters. Dr. Casares, played by Hendler, is called in to determine whether this is a ploy to take control of her fortune or if Martha is genuinely suffering from dementia. The film sheds light on mental health laws in Argentina, which now ban involuntary admission to such institutions.

One of the producers of the film is Santiago Mitre, known for his work on “Argentina, 1985.” This marks his first production with Netflix, highlighting the importance of streaming platforms in supporting the Argentine film industry. The film is set to stream worldwide on Netflix from October 17.

In a statement to Variety, Mitre expressed his disappointment in the Argentine government for not supporting the film industry as mandated by the national film law. He emphasized the importance of platforms like Netflix in promoting Argentine cinema and providing creative freedom to filmmakers.

Another Argentine film premiering at the festival is Dolores Fonzi’s “Belen,” backed by Amazon MGM Studios. The lack of support from the current government for Argentine films has led to a reliance on streaming platforms for funding and distribution.

“27 Nights” was developed with a team of writers and focuses on small moments and human connections, with a subtle political undertone reflecting the current situation in Argentina. The film was shot earlier this year in Buenos Aires, and its quick production process has led to its premiere at the prestigious San Sebastian Film Festival.

Overall, “27 Nights” showcases the resilience of the Argentine film industry and the importance of platforms like Netflix in supporting and promoting local cinema. It serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by filmmakers in the country and the role of art in reflecting and commenting on societal issues. Mitre expressed his gratitude and happiness at the opportunity to open the festival as a producer. His long-standing relationship with the festival dates back to his earlier films, including “Paulina,” which won three prizes, “Argentina, 1985,” which received the Audience Award, and Fonzi’s directorial debut feature ‘Blondi,’ produced by their company.

The honor of opening the festival as producers filled Mitre and his team with immense pride. He extended his thanks to festival director José Luis Rebordinos and the entire programming team for the opportunity.

The image accompanying the article showcases a still from the film “27 Nights” credited to Joe Ekonnen. The visual representation adds to the excitement surrounding the festival and the films being showcased.

Overall, Mitre’s sentiments of happiness and gratitude set the tone for what promises to be a successful and memorable festival opening. The collaboration between filmmakers and festivals is crucial in the industry, and Mitre’s words reflect the importance of such partnerships.
