En Cali 2023, se vive una enorme crisis ambiental y social debido a la escasez de agua, producto de la sequía que se padece hace varios meses y la contaminación y desaparición de las principales cuencas hídricas de la ciudad. Diversos habitantes ejercen sus labores, oficios y actividades cotidianas en medio de un contexto duro y salvaje. La ciudad se ha fragmentado en dos zonas, una privilegiada con fuertes cordones de seguridad, donde viven las personas más pudientes y poderosas; y otra llamada “zona seca” que carece del servicio de agua potable, y en la que subsiste el resto de la población que absolutamente golpeada por la crisis está llegando a los niveles más altos de violencia, insalubridad y corrupción. Una lluvia venidera que se anuncia en los medios de comunicación es una noticia que altera a toda la ciudadanía.

Cinematography
The strange voice of Yukie guides us through her memories before the end of time. Yukie awakens in the bodies of other women and recognizes herself in different places. William Vega, who premiered his first feature La Sirga at the Cannes Director’s Fortnight, takes material from diverse sources and assembles it to show, with sensual melancholy, the fate of a woman in her transit through the “final days” of a world that, like in Eliot’s poem, ends not with a bang but with a whimper.
