Logline

Two Shots Fired

17-year-old Mariano finds a gun at his home. In a thoughtless moment he shoots himself twice, but he survives. DOS DISPAROS portrays the strained relations in the family and among friends due to the shooting.

"Rejtman has developed a canny, wholly original serio-comic voice. Romantic confusion, investment troubles, unemployment, youthful aimlessness, the numbing rush of city life, and the revivifying power of music and dance: in Rejtman's movies, the business of modern urban living – and specifically, of living in Argentina during the country's millennial economic crisis – comes off as both familiar and thrillingly strange. Film Comment says: 'Rejtman sustains a unique energy across all of his work, which combines droll dialogue with screwball-inspired situations and chance.'"
Rachel Del Giudice, Film Society Lincoln Center
