Synopsis

In 2001 we traveled to Patagonia in search of the ultimate image of the end of the world. I was attracted to the myths and imaginary experiences associated with those lands. I didn’t know what we were going to encounter and how much this voyage would change me. During that 2001 trip and another one in 2002, I met people living in total solitude, pushed to the bottom end of the world, at the fringe of mankind, who would somehow change the course of my life, my gravitational center.
