Autumn Sun

Directed by Eduardo Mignogna

Argentina | 110 minutes | 1996

Spanish with English subtitles

Winner of five Argentinean Film Critics Association Awards, Autumn Sun centers on Clara Goldstein, a lovely, middle-aged Jewish woman who, because of an impending visit from her American brother, is forced to create a contrived relationship with a man of her own faith. She places an ad in a personals column and meets Raul, a well-spoken, handsome and charming man whom she soon discovers is a Gentile and does not fulfill her reason for placing the ad. Having no alternative, Clara proceeds to instruct Raul with an intensive course in Judaism. Their journey is both humorous and captivating, but not without pitfalls as they risk a last chance at a meaningful relationship in their lives.
