Upcoming Latin American films include the Argentinian productions La ira de Dios, based on the novel La muerte lenta de Luciana B by Guillermo Mart nez and starring Juan Minuj n, Diego Peretti, and Macarena Achaga in a story full of mystery and drama; Pipa, starring Luisana Lopilato, Mauricio Paniagua and In s Est vez among others, directed by Alejandro Montiel and based on the novels by Florencia Etcheves about Detective Manuela Pipa Pelari (La corazonada, Perdida), a retired police officer who returns to the job after the appearance of a lifeless body in northern Argentina; and Matrimillas, directed by Sebasti n De Caro and starring Luisana Lopilato and Juan Minuj n as a young couple who decide to use an app that adds or subtracts points according to their merits with one another, sending their lives spinning out of control.

Additionally, the Chilean film Ardiente Paciencia, based on the successful homonymous novel by Antonio Sk rmeta is coming soon.
