When cinema, culture, and conversation meet — something beautiful happens.

If you’re curious about Argentinian culture, if you would like to hear stories that inspire you, if you want to experience an engaging evening and discover other flavors rather than a piece of meat on the grill, this event is for you. 

The evening starts with the screening of the film “Cama adentro”, a powerful drama that explores the delicate balance between loyalty and exploitation in the relationship between a wealthy employer and her domestic worker, set against Argentina’s 2001 economic collapse. A compelling portrait of a bond built in inequality, and two women confronting the fragility of identity, pride, and social order in a collapsing world.

The film will be followed by a relaxed dialogue between the audience, where together we’ll reflect about the biases, contradictions and questions sparked by the movie. Of course, no one is obliged to speak in public, but anyone who wants to share their thoughts is welcome. 

After the talk, we’ll treat you with a traditional vegetarian dinner, inspired by homemade recipes and served at a communal table. The best conversations start when we share a meal, don’t you think? 

You’ll find a curated selection of Argentinian wines from boutique wineries, local beers and sodas. These are not included in the ticket fee but will be sold at a very friendly price.

Between the courses and at the end of the meal, the music of Hermanos Mosteiro will round off this evening of sensorial experience with the poetic nostalgia of tango melodies. 

It will be warm, it will be fun, it will be special.

The screen is just the beginning.
