New Argentine Cinema refers to a movement in Argentine filmmaking that emerged in the late 1990s and early 2000s. It is characterized by a focus on personal stories, social issues, and a departure from traditional commercial cinema. Filmmakers often explore themes of identity, memory, and the impact of Argentina's political history, particularly the Dirty War. This movement has produced notable directors such as Lucrecia Martel and Pablo Trapero, who have gained international recognition. Their films often feature innovative storytelling techniques and a distinct visual style, contributing to a renewed interest in Argentine cinema on the global stage.
