A Useful Life

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.
