Synopsis
A family travels in a cart the 120 km between its original home and Resistencia, the Chaco capital. Chaco is by far one of the poorest provinces in Argentina, it is located in our country's Northeast corner. Illegal occupants of land - squatters - give testimony of their dignity and poverty. An offical accepts the director's challenge to go roudn the settlements. A geologist, a well-known intellectual and a robbery just in the middle of the film shooting form this entangled ride, in a documentary that includes Brechtian nuances altogether with fictional elements.
