-Santiago Miter: He is the director of “Argentine 1985”the most watched national film of the year and one of the films chosen to represent the country in the preselection where the one that will compete for the Oscar is defined.

Noticias recognizes his work to activate that memory that favors meetings and debates.
-Enrique Pineyro: It is difficult to define him because he is a multiple man: actor, director, film producer, pilot, doctor, cook.
