Country music is having a moment. For the first time ever, the genre accounted for the top five songs on Billboard’s Hot 100. Veterans like Morgan Wallen and Taylor Swift and relative newcomers Ella Langley and Stella Lefty blocked out hits from major pop acts like Ariana Grande, Olivia Dean, Bruno Mars, and Tame Impala from the upper reaches of the countdown. With such a dominant year for the genre — and perhaps a weaker year for pop — this could be the first time in more than decade that the Grammys reward a country artist with the biggest song…

Raised on the wide-horizoned pampas beyond Buenos Aires, two Argentinean girl cousins — Guillermina “Guile” Aranciaga and Belinda “Beli” Stutz — spend their time playing make-believe and goofing off, become teenagers and then women with children of their own in The Illusion of an Everlasting Summer, photographer-turned-filmmaker Alessandra Sanguinetti’s luminous, indelible documentary. Shot over 25 years from 1999 onwards, this cinematic work evolved from an earlier project that resulted in exhibitions and books, which also recorded, in large-format photos, Guile and Beli’s child-to-adult evolution. Indeed, Sanguinetti can be heard out-of-frame talking to the girls, or taking another shot with her…
