Alejo Moguillansky · Argentina, Switzerland · 1h 46min

A little girl and a blind man staring at a lake that blurs the limits of space. Two actors coming together as lovers to rehearse an old play in a southern country. Two old men living inside a rubbish bin in front of the Congress of that same southern country. A son in perpetual farewell with his aging mother, a blind pianist condemned to play Beethoven’s Moonlight, because it is the only piece she still remembers by heart. Two filmmakers, perhaps responsible for all of the above, shooting trains, moons, and devoting their time to an activity that no one knows if it still exists: cinema.
