"K*ll the Jockey" screening, D100

K*ll THE JOCKEY (Argentina, 2024) – Thursday, March 5, D100, 7:00pm

Pulled back into a life of crime while trying to lose himself to drugs and alcohol, Remo, the Buster Keaton-esque title character, throws a curveball to his handlers during a big race, then finds himself escaping the hospital with a concussion, wandering the streets of Buenos Aires with a new look and identity. Sexy dance sequences, flights of magical realism, a killer techno soundtrack, and, ultimately, a moving trans allegory are soon to follow... Produced by Pedro Almodovar’s company El Deseo; winner of 11 Argentine Academy Awards; Screen Daily called it “a playful, shape-shifting, questioning journey that refuses to be neatly pinned down.”
