Before the Law
2012, Spanish. Directed by Pablo Klappenbach & Emiliano Jelicié.
Underground and gay writer Carlos Correas left a number of questions after his suicide. A few manuscripts, a diary, letters, and the traumatic screen version of a short story promise to be the parts of a puzzle that pieces together the experience of an intellectual life painfully argentinian.
