Based on the real-life experience of her younger brother, director Betania Cappato’s A School in Cerro Hueso tells the story of an urban family who relocates from Argentina’s city of Santa Fe to a humble coastal village to enroll their daughter, Ema (Clementina Folmer), who is on the autism spectrum, in the only primary school that accepts her application.

Presented with an opening short film: “My Parent Neal,” by Hannah Saidiner (8 min)
