Skirball Cultural Center says…

In Family Law, Ariel (Daniel Hendler) is a devoted attorney and teacher trying to live up to the perfectionist standards of his accomplished father (Arturo Goetz). Living in the shadow of his parents’ lofty ideals, Ariel struggles to grow into a confident adult. Winner of the 2007 Silver Condor for Best Director awarded by the Argentinean Film Critics Association. (2006, 102 min. No MPAA rating. In Spanish with English subtitles.)

 

Empty Nest follows the relationship of Leonardo (Oscar Martínez), a self-absorbed, middle-aged playwright, and his wife, Martha (Cecilia Roth). Their three children are grown and out of the house, leaving them to focus on their identities, both as individuals and as a couple, for the first time in years. Winner of the Best Actor award at the 2008 San Sebastian Film Festival. (2008, 91 min. No MPAA rating. In Hebrew and Spanish with English subtitles.)
