For example, Un Puma’s Jeronimo Quevedo, now one of Argentina’s leading producers, started in this section and this year, his production Hard Boiled School( La Escuela Pesada) has been selected to participate in the festival’s Europe-Latin America Co-Production Forum. Meanwhile, Lelio’s 2005 debut feature film The Sacred Family( La Sagrada Familia) premiered at the festival before the director received the WIP Latam Award for Gloria in 2012.
