Reflections of the 2001 Economic Crisis – Argentina

Underground theater in Buenos Aires is quirky, unpredictable and wildly important to the art and culture of the city. For actor Pablo Mikozzi, it is the opportunity to create freely, away from the constraints of commercial theatre. It also allows actors to engage the audience, in an intimate setting, face to face.

This video is part of the award winning multimedia project, “Now What, Argentina?” produced by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Journalism and Mass Communication. The project was produced 10 years after Argentina’s economic crisis. It looks at the effects of the collapse and the ways in which people have adapted.
