The Movie Teller
“Everyone has a story to tell”
María Margarita is the youngest of four siblings in a family living in a mining town in the Atacama Desert (Chile). The most special time of the week for this family is Sunday, when they all go to the movies to enjoy stories that let them escape their everyday lives by transporting them to other worlds. The girl’s parents soon realise that the little girl has a very special gift: an almost uncanny ability to recount movies. The girl’s extraordinary talent will spread throughout the village, changing the fortunes of her family as the country is transformed forever.
This film offers a tender, evocative journey into the heart of a community transformed by the magic of storytelling. It's a poignant ode to imagination, family, and the human need for connection, unfolding with a gentle, enchanting rhythm against a beautifully rendered historical backdrop.
