Feature film made by students of the 2020 course of the Realization 4 chair (DAA/FDA/UNLP) during confinement due to Covid-19 and with the support of the PAR Program (UNLP). It consists of a series of still image stories inspired by the famous short fiction film “La Jeteé”, made by Marker in 1962.

A father kidnaps his son to escape the country. They both find themselves trapped in a race against time, sparking a chase that will lead them to discover the meaning of love and fatherhood.

This micro-documentary is a chapter of the series Who I am?, which proposes a reflective journey through moving testimonies, emblematic places and the struggle for human rights, truth and justice. In the former clandestine detention centre Pozo de Banfield, Teresa Laborde Calvo narrates her birth in the car that transported her mother to the place, and Miguel Santucho tells the story of his mother’s last days. Together they walk through the space of memory narrating the way in which they reconstructed their identities, the present of each one and the importance of having dared to find the truth and continue searching for the missing grandchildren.
