A group of students agree to be test subjects for American scientists for a new drug that allows people to share dreams. While on a trip to the countryside the students begin to be terrorized by a local punk gang, harassed at the gas station and later almost driven off the road. It turns out the trip is nothing but a dream being conducted at the Corman Labs research facility – but one of the students is beginning to control the dream and lead the rest in a much more macabre direction, putting them at risk of dying in their dream and potentially never waking up. With the scientists unable to help, it’s up to Pity (Ana María Pittaluga) to find out the grisly truth.

Produced as the thesis film for co-director Horacio Maldonado and Gustavo Coya’s studies at the Instituto de Arte Cinematográfico in Argentina, ALGUIEN TE ESTÁ MIRANDO presents the youthful energy of two filmmakers early in their career. Influenced by the American slasher films of the same decade, including sci-fi elements that will later seen in the post-internet boom film, along with future Latin American rock legends Soda Stereo as the soundtrack, ALGUIEN TE ESTÁ MIRANDO is a blend of B movie thriller and punk rock.

MASK POLICY: We want this to be a fun, safe screening for everybody. Given the recent resurgence of COVID-19 and the delta variant, we ask all attendees to keep their masks on at all times while indoor at Rubulad. For the safety of staff, Spectacle volunteers and fellow movie-lovers, we ask that non-vaccinated guests keep their masks on and maintain social distance in the backyard throughout the movie. Thank you in advance for understanding!

As a special treat ahead of SPECTOBER 2020, Spectacle is thrilled to present ALGUIEN TE ESTA MIRANDO in a gorgeous new 5K restoration courtesy of Gotika releasing. Programmed in collaboration with Anthony Chassi.
