El “Guácaras” Festival de Cine, es un evento cinematográfico al aire libre de carácter anual organizado en el pueblo de Santa Ana de los Guácaras ubicado a unos 12 km. de la ciudad de Corrientes Capital. Es el único Festival de Cine de la Provincia y luce con orgullo el sello de 100% Regional ya que la totalidad de la programación se basa en la producciones del Nordeste Argentino.
Desde el año 2012, con un gran trabajo de producción se legalizó el Festival ante el INCAA (Instituto Nacional de Cine y Artes Audiovisuales) y hoy contamos con el código de Sala Ambulatoria: Nº 261327 y el Nº de Exhibidor: 601-148, que nos obliga a cortar entradas gratuitas durante todas las proyecciones que se realizan, que dan al Festival itinerante un cumplimiento formal.
La propuesta, impulsada por los propios cineastas locales, tomó por escenario la bella Santa Ana en el 2011 con la realización de la primera edición en 2011 a la que concurrieron unas 800 personas colmando el mágico lugar de silencios, de sonrisas, de miedo pero sobre todo de plena identificación, el “Guácaras 2” del año 2012 dio un resultado inesperado ya que fueron 1.310 los espectadores que asistieron durante los 4 días de proyección. Y hoy El Guácaras se ha convertido ya en el Primer Festival de cine de referencia que tiene la provincia porque cada vez mas se hace necesario este tipo de acciones para promover espacios de difusión gratuitos, sembrar el lenguaje audiovisual de y en la Región poniendo de manifiesto nuevamente la idiosincrasia y la cultura local a través del cine, por eso el Guácaras se propone reforzar ese impulso inicial pero siempre ponderando el esfuerzo de los cineastas regionales.
La programación del 3º Festival diagramado en 4 Jornadas, que se realizará del 6 al 9 de diciembre y contempla cinco secciones:
1) Cine en la Escuela: Películas generadas en el ámbito escolar. El cine se ha convertido en una de las artes más poderosas y populares desde su nacimiento en el pasado siglo. Forma parte de esencial de los modos en donde sucede la comunicación en todas sus formas. A mitad de camino entre el arte y el entretenimiento. Comprender su proceso, garantiza su devenir. Apropiarse de sus herramientas es democratizar e incluir a los autores desde temprano. Y el mejor lugar es la escuela.
2) Cinemboyeré: Esta sección es producto de la convocatoria abierta ya que la producción cinematográfica regional y sus hacedores actúan en todo lugar y en forma incesante. Ya no es privilegio de unos pocos. Ya es expresión popular más allá de la academia. Posibilitar una pantalla, es abrir al público la consideración de esos narrativas, aún ocultas, pero sin embargo, destinadas a integrar el imaginario audiovisual de nuestro pueblo.
3) Guácaras presenta: Sección con peliculas invitadas ya que no hay un solo modo de hacer una película. Las formas de producción, de dirección, de actuación, de rodaje se multiplican según sus hacedores se propongan. En soledad o en grupo es casi siempre un evento mágico, transformador y revelador. Nadie sale indemne de un rodaje, en donde la luz manda.
4) De estreno: El INCAA -a través del Sistema Argentino de TV Digital Terrestre (SATVD-T) desarrolla el Plan Operativo de Fomento y Promoción de Contenidos Audiovisuales Digitales para TV-, sigue apoyando a las producciones regionales. La medida, de alcance federal, visibiliza a una nueva generación de trabajadores que se expresan a través de los oficios del cine, en donde el estreno constituye el mejor momento.
5) Videoclips fue otra sección, que muestra el vínculo de la música local y regional con el audiovisual y su importancia como registro para la difusión de la música emergente.
En el acto central del día Domingo , se entrega el Premio “Guácaras 2013” obra realizada por el escultor Julio Mac Donald, la persona elegida y destacada por los organizadores, en el ámbito del Cine Regional durante este año. Y se entrega además el premio al mejor trabajo que es elegida por el público.
