In the mid-1950s, Sara Facio burst into the world of photography. A tireless precursor, a photographer with a unique gaze, an audacious photojournalist, with the camera on her back, “was there” whenever she wanted.

In the 60s and thanks to the epistolary exchange, the young filmmaker Manuel Antín and the famous writer Julio Cortázar devised four films. An ocean away, a fruitful collaboration and genuine friendship are born.

Roberto is a “calesitero”; - a merry-go-round owner. Roberto talks about his work, and how the merry-go-round touches the lives of many generations; of parents and grandparents, who have seen their children grow and Develop. The film pays homage to inevitable change, but also to the things that remain, and humanity’s fight to keep alive the traces of a culture and a society that seems to be doomed to disappear.
