Río Abajo

The path of a man to restart his life after a personal tragedy that leads him to leave the city and move to an inhospitable place that allows him to be reborn.

Four friends live together in an abandoned house, wearied by the tedium of knowing that their lives will be tomorrow the same as today, a year from now the same as tomorrow, a century from now the same as a year from now. Being eternal was their sentence.

In a house hidden in the middle of the jungle, a clairvoyant is visited by three strangers who ask for her help in invoking an ancestor at a séance. This unwanted encounter soon turns into a nightmare.

The arrival of a stranger -a thief running away from his accomplices- alters the routine of a big and solitary house in the Parana river delta inhabited by two women. That man carries a somber past behind him and moves towards an equally loo-my destiny. A film noir in a jungly landscape, with a dark and dense atmosphere.

A couple of ghosts spend their leisure hours playing in the fields, enjoying nature and the eternal words that Rainer Maria Rilke wrote over a century ago to a young poet. The film was shot with a photo camera.
