Synopsis

In 1997 Fernando Birri returns to film in his country to talk about the validity of utopias and I decide to record these moments. A first version of this documentary was hidden for 20 years in a fragile VHS. Today it returns to the light, to become a new film that updates the validity of the voice of this poet, master of many generations of Latin American cinema, who at 92, continues to try to catch his own utopias and mines.
