In 2018, a group of nine women filed a complaint against two of their teachers at Lleida’s Theatre School for sexual abuse carried out between 2001 and 2008, when they were teenagers. It was too late. Due to fear, embarrassment, because they took so long to understand and digest what had happened, the complaint arrived when the statute of limitations had expired and the case had been closed. What they didn’t know is that, despite the statute of limitations having expired, their statements were opening a new door where, perhaps, all was not lost.
Otto Meiling is the German alpinist who manufactured the first skis and contributed to establish the biggest ski resort of Latin America in Patagonia, Argentina at the beginning of the 20th century. Carlos Echeverría is a film director that started a documentary about him but did not finish it for dark reasons. Esperanza is the current under-20 national ski champion and during her training she meets Miguel, a ski lift operator. Through Miguel’s eyes, we discover the world of the people who work there so others can practice the sport of skiing. Most of the workers are Mapuche descendants and have never skied. The relationship between these characters shows the hidden universe of labour relations that are generated during the ski peak season.
