My grandfather was killed at the beginning of the war in Colombia, after that fact several men in the family have chosen weapons. Like my cousin´s son that was injured in combat by the paramilitary, whom was recruted with only 15 years of age. My father managed to build a different life for himself. That is the hope that I wish illuminates my son Matías and all of us, the sons and daughters of war.

Un viaje ininterrumpido por una calle de Cuba. La película explora los diferentes estados de la mente, ritmos, caras y vacíos que coexisten en estrecha proximidad con el espacio prismático de la cuadra, me siento a mirar la rutina, el ocio y la auto-expresión, que es también la de toda una generación.
