Summary: From Kino Lorber release case cover: "Man Facing Southeast" is Argentine director Eliseo Subiela's 1986 cult classic, a powerfully moving science fiction parable of a saint-like stranger in an even stranger land – our Earth. This critically-acclaimed gem has not been available on DVD or Blu-ray in the United States, until now. A man named Rantes (Hugo Soto) suddenly appears in a Buenos Aires psychiatric hospital expertly playing the organ. But who is he – this man with no recorded identity? Doctor Denis (Lorenzo Quinteros) dismisses Rantes' claim of being an alien visitor as a case of paranoid delusion. Beatriz (Inés Vernengo), his only visitor, sees him as an intimate and knowing companion. And the other patients, intrigued by his mysterious intelligence, see him as their only source of hope. Inspiring, mystical, and unforgettable, "Man Facing Southeast" is one of the great science fiction films of the 1980s. From SBP release case cover: El doctor Denis es el médico encargado de una de las salas de un hospital psiquiátrico. De improviso aparece en el lugar un joven que dice llamarse Rantés y provenir de otro planeta. El médico supone que este individuo es un farsante. Ante la insistencia del joven, el doctor concluye que se trata de un paranoico delirante, salvo por algunos hechos inquietantes, de lo que el espectador comienza a ser testigo.
