El grill de César (Cesar’s Grill)
Darío Aguirre, Germany, Switzerland, 2013, 88 min. Spanish with German subtitles

Preceded by a book market by independent Latin American editorials and Latin American sounds.
Followed by a talk with Darío Aguirre and a Salsa set by Ale Borea aka DJ Concolón.

Unfolding through intimate and tender images, Cesar’s Grill is a story of migration, familial proximity and distance, and of belonging and identity as something that shifts across places, times, and relationships, that is continually renegotiated. As one of the few films addressing this experience within the context of Europe and Latin America—more specifically between Ecuador and Germany—it renders visible a reality that often remains unseen. As part of Marcos Sensibles: Ecos Latinoamericanos (Tender Frames: Latin American Echoes), it becomes the starting point for a shared space of resonance, where diasporic experiences can be felt, linger, and be held collectively. 
After the screening, everyone is invited to gather in HANE where Salsa rhythms by Ale Borea aka DJ Concolón will open a space to encounter, dance or continue the conversation with the filmmaker.

Darío Aguirre is a filmmaker, writer, and producer whose work combines subtle humor with a precise attention to identity, family, and memory. He was born in Guayaquil, Ecuador and is now based in Hamburg, where he also founded Tiempo Filmproduktion in 2020.

Ale Borea (DJ Concolón) is a Berlin-based musician, sound artist, and researcher from Lima. She writes on listening, music, and sound, and is active in Berlin’s independent music scene, where she performs in various projects as a percussionist, drummer, and as DJ Concolón. In her sets, she brings together Peruvian salsa and Afro-Latin rhythms.

Gabriela Paredes Siml is a German-Peruvian anthropologist, political educator, cultural manager and aspiring film mediator. Using participatory and audiovisual methods, and through the translation of Latin American poetry, she creates spaces of resonance in German-Latin American contexts.
