Through a series of interviews and enactments we learn the story of Nico and Amalio, two children from Mexico who lost a friend while climbing a mountain. Documentary and fiction seamlessly merge creating a hybrid film, revealing how the two children and their families deal with death.
Hot up-and-coming Mexican filmmaker Nicolás Pereda directs this mysterious, poetic short, which is also a beautiful, vivid example of a major, popular new genre at film festivals: the deft weaving together of fiction and documentary until you cannot distinguish which is which.
