Viejo Reales' Long Journey to Death

Argentine filmmaker Gerardo Vallejo, exiled in Spain, visits the Salamanca village of Cespedosa de Tormes, where his grandfather was born, and reconstructs the memories of his time with the locals.

The gaucho Martín Fierro is forcibly taken to the frontier and compelled to fight in the war. After deserting, he returns home to find his wife and children gone. He kills a man and, now a deserter and murderer, flees into the desert, where he encounters Sergeant Cruz, who will accompany him on his journey.

A story with autobiographical overtones that follows Miguel, a film director obsessed with making his next film. The plot begins in his childhood and, through him, we see the political ups and downs of Argentina, the suffering of the poor working class in Tucumán, his exile, and his love affair with a rural schoolteacher.

A boy from Tucumán is reunited with his grandfather after seven years of exile and learns about his father, a lawyer for workers.

Peronist view of its history between the fall in 1955 and the electoral triumph of 1973 using a metaphor of the poem Martin Fierro.

The journey of two brothers, "golondrinas" farmworkers from Tucumán to Río Negro, Argentina, who are forced to move from one place to another to find work.

Shot in the impoverished northern province of Tuncamán in Argentina, this brief cine-tract shows the children and elderly people who are served by a community soup kitchen that exists independently of state support. The film's sequence of images, many shot in close-up, is accompanied by the Argentine national anthem on the soundtrack.
