Synopsis:
Argentine film legend Leonardo Favio’s latest film, Aniceto, is a remake of his classic film El romance de Aniceto y la Francisca as a ballet production. Aniceto is a solitary man who lives with his fighting cock in the small town of Mendoza. Francisca is an innocent young woman who arrives in search of a job. They meet and fall in love. At first it seems like a dream come true, but it soon becomes a nightmare when the enigmatic and irresistible Lucia moves into the town. Aniceto soon finds himself at Lucia’s mercy as she drives him to his own destruction.
Aniceto was the most awarded film at the Argentine Academy Awards, winning Best Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Art Direction, Best Original Sound and Best Actor. The Argentine Film Critics Association also named it Best Film and honored Favio as Best Director.
Aniceto marca la vuelta del cantante, actor y director Leonardo Favio a la gran pantalla, tras 15 años de ausencia. Con una puesta en escena que parte del uso de coreografías y de bailarines como actores, es el remake de su mítico film “El romance de Aniceto y la Francesa”. Cuenta la historia de Aniceto, quien además mantener una relación con Francisca, una mujer dulce y ingenua, seducirá a la apasionada y sensual Lucía, el polo opuesto de la anterior. En la más reciente entrega de los Cóndores de Plata, equivalentes al Oscar argentino, recibió 9 galardones, entre ellos el de mejor película y el de mejor director.
