Netflix Unveils 2024 ‘Made in Argentina’ Lineup: Beloved Comic Strip Character Mafalda Gets Series Treatment, Ricardo Darín Touts Drama ‘The Eternaut’
On the heels of stricter government reforms to state-backed funding, the streamer hopes to coax viewers into the vast talent Argentina has on offer.
The event took place at the Centro Cultural San Martin, a storied arts hub situated in the downtown theater district and an ardent arm of support for regional cinema, on the heels of strict government efforts to cut state-backed funding of the country’s audiovisual sector. The streamer might not be able to bear the burden of fully supplementing the industry, but the event lent hope that each project included in the line-up would further spawn interest in the larger Argentine talent pool, full of varied and unique stories that travel effortlessly across markets. Based on the acclaimed graphic novel from Héctor G. Oesterheld and Francisco Solano López, the series follows Juan Salvo, played by Ricardo Darin, as he and fellow survivors navigate an alien threat while traversing the near-apocalyptic cityscape after a freak snowstorm wipes out millions.
