SYNOPSIS | SINOPSIS
Located in a flat in the famous Corrientes Avenue in Buenos Aires, for more than 30 years “Luisita Photo Studio” portrayed hundreds of celebrities of Argentinian show business. Starting in the ’60s, Luisita -the shy and sensitive woman behind the camera- found a way to position herself in a field of art dominated by men. Together with her two inseparable sisters, they performed great labour of craftwork that -although shadowed by technology- today has a new meaning.
De Tita Merello y Susana Giménez, Amelita Vargas a Olmedo y Porcel y Atahualpa Yupanqui, las celebridades que pasaron por el estudio fotográfico de Luisita son innumerables. Sol, una joven fotógrafa, descubre en esta Casa-Estudio más de 25.000 negativos inéditos que abren una ventana hacia un verdadero epicentro artístico de la cultura popular argentina.
