2. AN EXCLUSIVE FIRST LOOK AT GRITTY FIGHT FLICK
Attention people in Chile, Chileans or tourists visiting, there's a new movie opening today (June 6)
and it's one of the most long-awaited Chilean productions of all year (besides the two films starring
Michael Cera and directed by Sebastiàn Silva). Directed by Alicia Scherson and starring the
international star Rutger Hauer (Hobo with a Shotgun, Blade Runner) and the most beloved
young actress of Chile, Manuela Martelli (Machuca, B-Happy), The Future opens on more than
12 screens all over Chile, including the always classic "Cine Normandie," as well as in major chains.

FEATURED ARTICLES
The film, based on the novel "Una novelita lumpen" by Chilean author Roberto Bolaño, follows
Bianca (Martelli) and her brother after the death of their parents and how they reflect their life in a
lonely apartment in Rome, subjected to the fears of a tight economy and the bad anxieties that her
brother begins to experience when he starts to work at a local gym. That's when the opportunity to
steal the treasure of a retired American actor, Maciste (Hauer), appears to secure the future of this
broken family. But the sacrifice Bianca has to make is maybe too big for her.
After opening in Sundance this year, this film had many other showings around the world, including
the Dallas IFF where Bill Graham reviewed it for this site, and I quote:
"There's a way to be grossly exploitative and then there's The Future, an Italian film
that has a heaping amount of female nudity and yet never feels grotesque. That it is
one actresses' frame on display over and over helps to give the film a sense of ease.
We witness youth's exploration of sexuality and the way that can be used as casually
as a handshake or lead to so much more. Sex is a gateway: to adult hood; to a
relationship; to knowledge; to money; to power; to the harsh realities of life. There
aren't so much profound life lessons within as there are an opening up of the

It's LA Film Fest time once again with downtown's big

Regal Cinemas, this year's fest will again be an
oasis of indie cinema in the epicenter of megaplex
mayhem. We'll be taking you on a quick tour of the
aren't so much profound life lessons within as there are an opening up of the
discussion for these ideas."

The film also had a showing at the Buenos Aires International Film Festival (BAFICI) of this year,
and I also did a small capsule review for another site, and that I quote here:

"This is among my favorite films of the year 2013 and it's a pleasure to find the powerful
performances and the amazing cinematography, it feels like a major production, it's
always entertaining and mesmerizing to watch, and when the plot finally goes towards
its final stretch, it becomes emotional and incredible.It also has the first believable and
actually good performance of Manuela Martelli."

Most of us have been unable to put PUBLIC

fan of the film, but feel like I'm well in the minority.

Here's a fundamental question that's being
