NY PREMIERE
Latin Noir travels to five Latin American cities, to meet with famous crime novelists Leonardo Padura (Havana), Luis Sepulveda (Santiago), Paco Ignacio Taibo II (Mexico City), Santiago Roncagliolo (Lima), Guillermo Orsi and Claudia Pineiro (Buenos Aires). Through their work, we discover a unique genre of flourishing literature that has a strikingly different tone from its North American or Nordic counterparts: it’s political, dark and above all concerned with a sense of extreme disorder created by the state’s involvement in crime.
