LAS ACACIAS

Verve Pictures are pleased to announce that LAS ACACIAS will be available on DVD
and Blu-Ray for the first time from 9 April.  


Winner of both the prestigious Sutherland Award at  the London Film Festival, and of the
Camera D’Or at Cannes last year, Pablo Giorgelli’s critically acclaimed road movie 
LAS ACACIAS was a festival favourite, and Giorgelli singled out as ‘one to watch’.  
With pitch-perfect performances from character actor German de Silva and newcomer
Hebe Duarte, LAS ACACIAS tells the story of a long distance lorry driver (German de
Silva) who agrees to drive a woman (Hebe Duarte) and her 5 month old child en route
from Paraguay to Buenos Aires. 


A subtle and tender road movie exploring loneliness and the pain of loss, LAS ACACIAS
grows into a searingly poignant tale about a passing encounter between two strangers and
the unlikely bond that grows between them.
