Family Politics

Mel is a photographer who preferably takes pictures of trees, used hotel rooms after sexual encounters and the streets of her hometown Trujillo. After her mother dies, she learns about a large debt she has left her. In an exhibition about her city, which she has organized with some colleagues, her picture catches the attention of a woman whom Mel has already come across in her photographic expeditions on the streets. They develop a special connection while accompanying each other through their days, wandering in a black and white Trujillo.

For Renzo, a teenager from Trujillo, Peru, the days pass by on the streets and skateboard runways where he tries to master new tricks on his board. Until fate leads him to meeting Zoe, a girl who spends her afternoons drawing the dozens of telephone antennaes that cut across the city sky, and his life transforms almost imperceptibly.
