Eleven young film-makers got together to collaborate in this atypical project. Atypical not only because of its technical specs, but because of its narrative structure. There are several scenes with only the city in common, and more as a conceptual presence at that than as a precise geography. None of those scenes contains a single "story": Each one of them is part of a larger situation that we cannot see, as though the beginning and end of each "story" had to be filled in by the audience.
A year after his father’s death, Victor returns to Buenos Aires in order to reconquer the life he was forced to abandon. He brings a new project with him for his former theater company: a radio-play of Shakespeare’s “Love’s Labour’s Lost”.
Shot at the National Museum of Fine Arts in Buenos Aires, In the Museum results from photographs taken with a nude painting during the director's previous feature, La Princesa de Francia. Six months after the filming, Matías Piñeiro returns to New York and realizes that he had taken with him the photographic camera that had supported the film and where are the photographs taken by the character Jimena (here, Gabi Saidón) in one of the scenes in the museum.
A group of girls and boys in their twenties settle in a country house that seems completely isolated from civilization. One of them writes a novel while the others try to become a gang and prepare a robbery; some fall in love, or seem to be, or believe (or say) they are in love. But these two, three, ten plot lines unfold from what the characters hide or just don’t know, connecting the writing of the novel and the forming of the gang, and the past of two of the characters with that of the house, and of those who perhaps were the two most bitter enemies of nineteenth century Argentine history.
Matías Piñeiro's first film, produced when he was a film student.
