Celina Murga: Last News

Variety welcomed as a “charming, humorous debut.” “American Night” turns on the sometimes fractious dynamics between movie animal actors and their wranglers. Among a trio of titles from young Colombian directors,  neo-noir documentary “Anhell69” is Colombian Theo Montoya’s first feature, after his short film “Son of Sodom” was chosen for the Cannes 2020 Official Selection.

Anna Marie de la Fuente Martin Scorsese is executive producing Argentine filmmaker Celina Murga’s latest drama, “The Freshly Cut Grass,” which has begun production.  Produced by “Argentina, 1985” producers Infinity Hill, the film stars Oscar nominee Marina de Tavira (“Roma”) who plays opposite Argentina’s Joaquin Furriel (“The Boss, Anatomy of a Crime”) in what is described as “an exploration of love, desire, relationships and how society applies double standards for men and women.” “I came to know Celina [Murga] through Rolex’s arts mentorship program, in which I’d agreed to participate for the 2008-2009 year,” said Scorsese. “I chose Celina among the candidates that were sent my way because I was greatly impressed by her two features ‘Ana and the Others’ and ‘A Week Alone,’” he added.
