DESCRIPTION:\n	Introduced by Guest Curator Itala Schmelz\; with discussion 
 after the screening \n\n\n	Dir. Fernando Spiner. Argentina. 2004\, 100 min
 s. In Spanish and Italian with English subtitles. With Alejandro Urdapille
 ta\, Alejandra Flechner\, Gabriel Goity.&nbsp\; \n\n\n	Set in the year 206
 8\, Goodbye Dear Moon is a film with regional roots that doubles as a spac
 e opera. To save the earth from natural disasters and catastrophes\, an Ar
 gentine scientist proposes to destroy the moon against the advice of the i
 nternational community who has threatened to sanction Argentina. When a gr
 oup of astronauts directed by the scientist attempt to bomb the moon from 
 a rocket\, the moon defends itself by sending out a mysterious force that 
 makes the astronauts hallucinate. Reality suddenly becomes twisted\, and t
 he earthlings lose their sanity in a style reminiscent of Tarkovsky’s Sola
 ris (1972). The film also touches on discourses surrounding womanhood and 
 femininity: a female astronaut in the group falls in love with a powerful 
 extraterrestrial being—an unknown spirit or God who takes the form of a ta
 ngo dancer. They escape together while the spaceship is destroyed by the A
 rgentinians. \n	\n\n\n	Comedia costumbrista y a la vez space opera\, esta 
 película resalta por el gran ejercicio actoral. Para salvar a la Tierra de
  las catástrofes naturales que la acechan\, un científico argentino propon
 e destruir la Luna. Los astronautas intentan bombardearla desde un cohete\
 , pero una fuerza misteriosa de la luna se defiende\, generándoles alucina
 ciones. La realidad se vuelve extraña\, los terrícolas pierden la cordura 
 al estilo Solaris de Tarkovsky. El film también cuestiona los discursos de
  género sobre la mujer. La astronauta se enamora de un poderoso ser extrat
 errestre\, una suerte de espíritu o dios sideral que se materializa en un 
 bailador de tango y escapan juntos mientras la aeronave es autodestruida p
 or los argentinos\, ante la molestia de las potencias mundiales. \n	\n\nTi
