Gaucho Gaucho
directed by Michael Dweck & Gregory Kershaw, Argentina/ USA 2025, 83'
Following on from their critically acclaimed The Truffle Hunters, documentary duo Michael Dweck and Gregory Kershaw have sniffed out another rare delicacy in Gaucho Gaucho. This gorgeous black-and-white film focuses on the lives and traditions of a community of gauchos, the wild northwest cowboys of Argentina. The film is intimate and expansive, immersive and immense, operatic and folksy. It is a film that takes you on a journey, often at a gallop, but never strays far.
