A Useful Life

View on the Pragda STREAM site

An art film enthusiast, Jorge fears that the decrease in theater attendance will force the Uruguayan Cinematheque to close. In an effort to save the theater, Jorge enters a new world where he is exposed to an unknown passion. Elegantly framed and brilliantly underrated, this is a universally attractive and loving tribute to the soul of cinema. A modern classic film.
