Synopsis
A symphony of the city in the heights, the illness of a worker, the nightmare and his redemption.
Director’s Statement
La Paz is the least western capital of the Americas. Located at more than 3600 metres above sea level, the city spreads like a sea of bricks, stones and concrete in the canyons that precede the altiplano.
I wanted to make a film about La Paz with characters who could provide a singular point of view upon the city. I found these characters in Elder, a young miner, and in Max, a tramp whose peculiar positions in the society allowed me to observe the city as a whole, to see its systems, architecture and changes.
Freely inspired by their lives, I imagined this story of illness and healing to take us into the heart of the social fabric of this city and reveal the lives of its invisibles.
