Location: Jule Collins Smith Museum of Fine Art
In Chinese Take-Away (Un Cuento Chino), Argentina's national treasure, Ricardo Darín, plays Roberto, a gruff, anti-social loner who lords over his tiny hardware shop in Buenos Aires with
a meticulous sense of control and routine, barely allowing for the slightest of customer foibles. After a chance encounter with Jun, a Chinese man who has arrived in Argentina looking for his only living relative, Roberto takes him in. Their unusual cohabitation
helps Roberto bring an end to his loneliness, but not without revealing to the impassive Jun that destiny's intersections are many and they can even divulge the film's surreal opening sequence: a brindled cow falling from the sky. The film is presented in Spanish
with English subtitles.
Tickets are free and open to the public. Advanced registration is encouraged via the museum’s program page.
The Museum Galleries are open before the film at 1:00 pm and after until 4:00 pm. Admission is free courtesy of JCSM Business Partners.
