When We Became the River
Synopsis
The last stretch of the Matanza-Riachuelo Basin, victim of possession, imposition and exploitation for several generations, acts as a spectator of its own history through three aspects: its colonization, its romanticization and its negligence. Throughout this sensitive and sensorial journey, the river connects with its roots, and with different views and aspects that converge in its current state.
