- Overview
- The ghosts of a 19th-century slaughterhouse haunt the Cinemateca Brasileira: where cows once died, films now end up. Montevideo's former Central Market houses the Cinemateca Uruguaya. A power plant now houses the Museo de Cine de Buenos Aires. This triptych portrays and connects three film archives through architecture and the buildings' interaction with urban life.
