With more than 100 artists, the Kirchner Cultural Center celebrates Charly García's 70th birthday with the event "Charly Cumple", a unique day dedicated to his work.
Soda Stereo, Café Tacvba, Aterciopelados and others figure in this 50-year history of Latin American rock through dictatorships, disasters and dissent.
Aided by archival footage and interviews with its key figures, this documentary delves into the history of Argentine rock music from its origins up to the mid-1990s.
It portrays the meeting between a young filmmaker and Charly García on a summer night in 1994 at the studio of Fitz Roy and Córdoba, where the musician performed extensive night rehearsals without interruption, wrote the lyrics at the time, practiced them for hours and recorded them on tape with the analog equipment of the time. This film brings together chamber confessions, details of the composition and sacred respect among talented musicians, as well as acrobatic exercises in the pool. A unique and unforgettable night about the creative processes of a legend.
Parallel Lines is a conceptual work composed and directed by Charly García, based on discovering what are formed when the two paralell lines come together.
Charly García is an Argentine singer-songwriter, musician and record producer. With a vast and renowned career, he formed and headlined two of the most popular bands in Argentina's rock history: Sui Generis in the 1970s and Serú Girán in the 1980s, plus cult status groups like progressive-rock act La Máquina de Hacer Pájaros and folk rock supergroup PorSuiGieco, both also in the 1970s. Since the 1980s García has worked mostly as a solo musician. García is widely considered by critics as one of the most influential rock artists in South America, and (together with Luis Alberto Spinetta) as "The Father of Argentine Rock".
