The tragedy of being a foreigner.

Drama

Freddy emigrates to Buenos Aires in search of a more prosperous life. In his native country, Bolivia, he left his family. But the capital of Argentina is not the paradise he dreamed of, and much less for illegal immigrants like himself. But even with that, he gets a job as a griller in a restaurant.

VIBE

A stark, unvarnished look at the immigrant experience. It's a quiet, often bleak portrayal of struggle and perseverance, capturing the ache of displacement and the small triumphs found in hardship.
