Starring: Antonio Laretta, Roberto Rovira
Year: 2008
80-year-old, bedridden Antonio awaits the visit of his estranged son. Looking out his window at the Patagonian landscape, he decides to secretly leave the house, unseen by his faithful caretakers, to take what might be a last walk in his fields. What could otherwise seem like insignificant memories or moments in one’s life, take a special, beautiful meaning and weight in this poetic, humanistic film.
