Cine Club Lanzarote pays tribute to Adolfo Aristarain with a screening of Tiempo de revancha

Cine Club Lanzarote pays tribute to the late Argentine director Adolfo Aristarain with a screening of Tiempo de revancha (1981), one of the most emblematic films of his career and an essential reference in Latin American political cinema. The screening takes place on 6 June at El Almacén as part of the film club's regular programme.

Considered one of the great works of Argentine cinema, Tiempo de revancha combines the pulse of a classic thriller with a critical gaze at the abuses of power and corporate structures during the years of the military dictatorship. The film follows Pedro Bengoa, a former trade union activist who agrees to take part in a scheme to fake a workplace accident and claim compensation. However, the unexpected death of his companion transforms the deception into a much deeper battle against a powerful multinational.

With this tribute, Cine Club Lanzarote remembers a filmmaker who made social commitment and the defence of human dignity hallmarks of his work. Tickets for the screening, on Saturday 6 June at 19:00 at El Almacén, are available through Ecoentradas.
