MUBI’s Encuentros podcast episode features a dialogue between Mexican filmmaker Alonso Ruizpalacios and Argentine writer Gabriela Cabezón Cámara. Ruizpalacios, whose debut Güeros (2014) earned Best First Feature at the Berlinale, has established himself as a leading Latin American auteur through formally experimental works combining inventive storytelling with sharp social critique. His films Museum (2018) and A Cop Movie (2021) both competed at Berlin, winning Silver Bears for screenplay and artistic contribution respectively. His 2024 feature The Kitchen premiered in Berlinale Competition with international festival circulation. Cabezón Cámara, an Argentine writer and journalist, achieved international recognition through politically engaged literature revisiting national history from unconventional angles. Her novel Adventures of China Iron reached the International Booker Prize shortlist in 2020, while her recent work We Are Green and Trembling (2023) employs baroque, formally adventurous language exploring colonial violence and silenced voices, earning the 2024 Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz Prize. The conversation centers on musicality in form and language, and the relationship between research and creation across both disciplines.
