Félix "Chango" Monti

Félix Monti is synonymous with cinematography in Argentina. From his early steps in the legendary San Miguel studios to his recent work in large-scale Argentine film productions, Chango has never stopped working. Directors Alejandra Martín and Paola Rizzi, also colleagues of his, chose not to shoot a motionless documentary and filled it with vitality –the same vitality the experienced cinematographer moves around with in every shoot or stage he sets foot in.

The filmmaker, writer and teacher-teacher Ricardo Becher likes extreme decisions, both in his life and in his work. Now, at 80 years of age, he begins a new book called “Recta Final”, about his geriatric experience. Lipgot portrays the present of the filmmaker, at the same time that he reviews his history, from his first shorts and the collaboration with Torre Nilsson, passing through the fundamental "Shot of Grace" (1969) - a film that defied its time and was censored -, leading to the new movement that Becher founded with his students: digital neo-expressionism
