Cuando brillan las estrellas

Days of Light

This beautifully integrated, multi-threaded narrative seamlessly interweaves six stories set in radically different locations across Central America, ranging from the tropical forests of Guatemala to the skyscrapers of Panama City. When a solar storm leaves the region without power, myriad dramas unfold over the course of five days during which all conveniences of modernity are stripped away. In Costa Rica, a pastor and his daughter worry for the future of their church, while in El Salvador, a grandmother and grandson make an arduous journey into the city. A husband and wife reconnect in Honduras, as a young couple nurses a mysterious stranger back to health in Guatemala. Meanwhile, in Nicaragua, a young woman prepares for her quinceañera and in Panama, a housekeeper grows exasperated with her demanding employer.

The Old Woman at the Back

A lonely and frustrated old woman offers a young student a deal that is difficult to fulfill: a house and food in exchange for a fluid daily conversation.

The Red Star

The investigation about an alleged international spy after the Nazi refugees in Argentina gives way to a plot that expands, becomes delirious and branches off. A mockumentary that has, at its center, an elusive woman whose trail can be traced in the most emphatic convulsions of the 20th century.

History of Fear

Buenos Aires, during the summer heart, in gated communities surrounded by wastelands covered with trash. The barking of stray dogs, repeated power outages, and uncontrollable clouds of smoke drive the inhabitants to confront their most primitive instincts.

20,000 Kisses

Juan is in his 30s, bored with his life, and isolated from his friends. He is just dedicated to being a good boyfriend. One day, his girlfriend dumps him, and he leaves the house they shared not knowing where to go. Eventually, he starts enjoying his life again.

Incómodos

Three friends take a roadtrip to their hometown. Nicolás is looking for the perfect spot to scatter his grandfather’s ashes, Abril is visiting her family for the first time in eight years and Alfred wants to take part in a dance contest.

Errantes

Yo soy sola

The story tells of four moments in the lives of four women: Vera, rising journalist but dissatisfied with life, trying to be the best without knowing where; Lina, always surroended by incense and saints, looking for the love of his life in a television character; Mara Bestelli, who is artificially inseminated without telling her partner that lives abroad; and Inés, whose only goal in life is to marry regardless of the reason for this decision.
