In 1920, workers from Patagonia, in Southern Argentina, gather around an anarcho-syndicalist society and go on strike, demanding better working conditions. When the situation turns unsustainable, President Yrigoyen sends Lieutenant Colonel Zavala to impose order.

VIBE

A stark, tense drama about the brutal realities of labor disputes and political power. It feels like a grim historical document, unflinching in its depiction of struggle and oppression in a remote, unforgiving landscape.
