This edition: Lucio Castro & Cast on 'End of The Century'

Episode Details

Original tape date: April 17, 2019. First aired: July 5, 2024.

Director Lucio Castro and cast members Juan Barberini, Ramón Pujol, and Mía Maestro discuss their film 'End of the Century' at the 48th edition of New Directors/New Films, which took place at Film Society of Lincoln Center and the Museum of Modern Art on March 27-April 7, 2019.

An Argentinian man from New York and a Spanish man from Berlin hook up by chance while in Barcelona. What seems like a one-night encounter between two strangers (played by Juan Barberini and Ramón Pujol) becomes an epic, decades-spanning relationship, which Lucio Castro depicts in a nonlinear fashion, and in which time and space refuse to play by the rules. Castro’s inventive and enigmatic debut feature is consistently surprising, turning a love story into a cosmic voyage with no clear beginning or end.
