Description
Summary:In the midst of the economic crisis in Argentina, thousands and thousands of people all across the country are unable to withdraw their money from bank accounts. The threat of hyperinflation, galloping unemployment and social unrest make for a very bleak future making most people wonder, whether the country will ever be able to re-gain "normalcy." For the young protagonist-cum-director, the question does not seem to make much sense - why talk about the end of crisis when Argentine IS a crisis, a nation that does not learn from past experiences and is thus forever doomed to repeat them. An aspiring photographer and film maker, Alejandra, decides to leave the country for Italy.
