Every document of civilization

Tatiana Mazú González
Arg. 2024. 90′

A crossroads of avenues that is, at the same time, the border between the city of Buenos Aires and its suburbs. Every night, thousands of people cross it on their way home from work. Buses, traffic lights, asphalt, concrete, a rusty sign. Someone going to school, someone selling bread. Street lights and electoral propaganda. Cell phone and hamburger advertising. Garbage and a lady selling flowers. The story of a mother who lost her son in the hands of the police confronts the image of normality. Her struggle and her voice draw the imaginary worlds of Jules Verne, which they fantasized about together. This film is a process of excavation. Or the dissection of the landscape where, fifteen years ago, the State disappeared Luciano Arruga.
