THE HEIRESSES (2019)
Starring Ana Brun, Margarita Irún, Ana Ivanova, Nilda Gonzalez, María Martins and Alicia Guerra. Directed by Marcelo Martinessi.
Asunción, Paraguay, 2013. Sixty-somethings Chela and Chiquita, both descendants of wealthy families, have been living together for more than thirty years. Times have changed though, and with debts mounting, the couple begins to sell-off some precious heirlooms to stay afloat. But the financial situation proves untenable, and convicted of fraud, Chiquita is sent to prison by a court order.
Suddenly, the sheltered Chela must fend for herself. Swallowing her pride, she reluctantly begins working as a chauffeur for the wealthy women of the neighbourhood. The changed circumstances lead her to, perhaps for the first time, contemplate her life and the choices she’s made.

NARCISO
Starring Diro Romero, Manuel Cuenca, Arturo Fleitas, Margarita Irun, Mona Martínez and Nahuel Pérez Biscayart. Directed by Marcelo Martinessi.
Asunción, 1959. Under dictator Alfredo Stroessner's tightening military regime, magnetic young DJ Narciso Arévalos is found dead after his provocative final broadcast. His popularity has risen in tandem with the arrival of imported American music, which Narciso – having returned from Buenos Aires energised by the likes of Chuck Berry and Buddy Holly - has convinced the station's repressed owner Lulú to play in place of traditional Paraguayan folk standards.
Filmed live before an adoring crowd, Narciso's show ignites a generation craving freedom. Yet his defiant allure also earns powerful, dangerous attention, and stirs envy among the fearful.
