Full Synopsis

When Santiago Sein retrieved a pile of film cans destined for the trash, he didn’t know that he’d saved a chapter of Argentinian film history forgotten by the books and forsaken by its participants: that of Córdoba’s amateur cinema in the heady 1960s and early 70s – cut short by the military junta.
