From its premiere at the Buenos Aires Festival of Independent Cinema, where it won both Best Director and the Audience Award, thence to numerous festivals in Europe, and now at Cinequest ? Historias Extraordinarias has been astounding sold-out audiences wherever it goes.Imbued with the spirit of Robert Louis Stevenson filtered through the sensibilities of Jorge Luis Borges and Thomas Pynchon, three unconnected, voiceover-narrated tales each starts off innocently enough and then veers into ever stranger, more fascinating realms: a labyrinth of side-steps and sub-plots, an ?ocean of stories? revealing surprise after surprise: a murder, maps, monoliths, legends, betrayals, cover-ups, multiple identities, a disappeared treasure of gold, and much, much more.
