Sofía is putting up search posters of her missing boyfriend Luis all over town. Copies of his picture surround her. Luis is one of the more than 80.000 missing persons in Mexico. At night Sofía faces a recurring dream: Little by little her world tranforms into paper. First the birds, then the ground, her room, untill even death is made of paper. "PAPEL" tells this Mexican story of mourning and hope in black and white still images.

Every morning Flora walks out into the Argentinian mountains with her llamas searching for pastures. However every season the animals become thinner. The world´s hunger for rechargeable batteries threatens the last water reserves of the Atacama and Kolla people and evokes memories of past conquistas.
