Agua y sal

Biguá, a port worker, awaits a son with his young girlfriend and embarks on the high seas. Javier, at 40 years old, has a wife he loves, works, enjoys a good time; and imagines recurring dreams. Another life, with another being very different, they cross as in a magical and mysterious dream. The film revisits the theme of the double and its question: will there be, somewhere in the world, a double for each one of us? And, if it exists, what would happen if we took their life?

One or the Other

December 2001, at km 80 of Route 7, in the Province of Buenos Aires. Next to a station that the train no longer passes through, there is a small town called Estación Cortez where Juan Martín Hernández, el Rubio, lives. In the middle of a country that is shipwrecked, the inhabitants of this town continue as every day, trying to escape despair. When the urgent does not give way to the important, some believe that letting go is the only alternative. Where can this young man who was born on the other side of the road run to?
