Santiago Mitre: 'My only dream is to keep directing'

Buenos Aires, April 19 (EFE) - Santiago Mitre has achieved his life goal: becoming a screenwriter and film director. "My only dream is to keep directing," says the creator of "Argentina, 1985" (Argentina, 1985), the film with the most nominations, 14, at the tenth edition of the Platino Awards, which highlight the achievements of Ibero-American cinema and promote its international exposure.

"I think that every year, Ibero-American cinema produces very strong films, and they are increasingly recognized in more places around the world. The interesting thing about these awards or events that bring together films from this vast geography is the possibility of increasing knowledge and circulation," the Argentine filmmaker tells EFE in Buenos Aires.
