This article analyzes the joint work of Augusto Roa Bastos, Tomás Eloy Martínez and Daniel Cherniavsky for the films El último piso and El terrorista in the framework of the transformations that took place in Argentine cinema at the beginning of the 1960s. The common writing work that brought together the narrators and the filmmaker fostered an innovative way of confluence between film and literature, different from that which had been established in the studios’ production. In this sense, co-writing altered and expanded the limited roles of librettist and director, and questioned the figure of authorship as it was installed in the literary institution. At the same time, the work of co-writing of these two films anticipates the poetics of the 1960s, between the realistic demand and the modernizing vocation.

Keywords : Latin American literatura; Argentine cinema; Augusto Roa Bastos; Tomás Eloy Martínez; Daniel Cherniavsky.
