Hermia & Helena
Description
Hermia & Helena mingles actors from Matías Piñeiro's Buenos Aires repertory with stalwarts of New York's independent film scene (Keith Poulson, Dustin Guy Defa, Dan Sallitt). It is a film of dead ends and new beginnings, navigating amorous detours across hemispheres and languages, in which the words of Shakespeare clash with the entanglements of modern, digital life.

A staging where the important thing is to enjoy, relax and turn any shred of drama into an excuse to be free. [Full review in Spanish]

Hermia & Helena presents a unique anomaly -- it's able to capture life at its most low-key but still manages to exemplify style over substance.
July 14, 2017
Things are never quite what they seem in this film's mischievous scheme, and although this idea feels breezy as it's playing out, there's something essential and very human about that observation.
May 24, 2017
By positioning Shakespeare within a chatty tale of young adulthood - and giving it a feminist slant - Piñeiro proves the vitality of the material without becoming subservient to it.
August 08, 2017
If Hermia & Helena triumphs on all fronts, it does so largely thanks to the contribution of Fernando Lockett, the photography director, who portrays the actors with a choreographic charm. [Full review in Spanish]

Always delightful, Hermia & Helena sees Piñeiro making an auteur film that fits into his oeuvre while expanding it in exciting directions-and en route, he makes New York his own.

For discerning moviegoers, the affably disorienting "Hermia & Helena" might just be the right kind of midsummer night's dreaminess.
May 25, 2017
A peculiar film, one both steely and delicate.
October 11, 2017
I went to see a new Argentine movie and a 1990s Whit Stillman movie broke out. I'm not complaining at all.
May 26, 2017
Part of the charm of Hermia & Helena is in the way it freely and randomly plays with form, employing luxuriantly slow dissolves, unexpected snatches of superimposed text, and even a black-and-white film-within-the-film.
October 19, 2017
The film runs smoothly, with naturalism, dropping the main secrets of the main character in small doses as they pass through both cities. [Full review in Spanish]
May 25, 2017
There are a few different potential films within Hermia & Helena - a Shakespeare adaptation, a tale of romantic relationships, a tale of family - but the totality proves a sunny and affable literary collage.
