Francısco Marquez

Argentinian filmmaker Francisco Marquez receives a $5,000 grant for his project Un deseo imparable

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

A free public film school opens in San Juan, a small city in an isolated region of Argentina, thus allowing a group of teens from working class and farming backgrounds to escape daily tedium and dream of potentially wider horizons. Combining interviews with students, their daily activities and sequences they film, the documentary promotes the idea that art should be accessible to everyone.
