Lisandro Alonso (born 2 June 1975) is an Argentine film director and screenwriter. Recognised as a leading figure in slow cinema and the New Argentine Cinema movement, he is known for his minimalist, observational films that follow solitary figures moving through remote landscapes, blending elements of documentary and fiction. All seven of his feature films have premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, and his 2014 film Jauja won the FIPRESCI Prize in the Un Certain Regard section.
