Araceli Castellanos Gotte

Organism is, among other things, the story of a young woman and her pet, a small dog named Italia. It's also a new piece added to the extended work of Iván Fund, where the documentary record blurs with fiction in order to create (or describe) small intimate universes where the director's relationship with his characters result in an area where emotions and sensibility rule using small everyday events that push the story forward.

Arita and Balencha, two young girls and close friends are like sisters to each other. Most of their friends have moved to Buenos Aires, but even if your boyfriend is trying to tug you along, it takes courage (and money in your pocket) to say farewell to each other and the place you have grown up in. But time passes and change happens, no matter if you want it or not - and maybe even Arita and Belencha will one day grow apart. But until then their days are spent talking, dreaming and finding a new home for a cardboard box full of puppies among friends and neighbours.

Downtrodden after some missteps in life, Daniel returns home. Work is non-existent, his ex-wife expects financial help he can't give her, and things are looking bleak. Yet as he prepares to become Godfather to his sister's son, who's soon to be baptised, he rediscovers a purpose - for a few days, at least.
