Director: Carlos Echeverría, Producer: Paula Zyngierman, Production: MaravillaCine, Language: Spanish, Country: Argentina, 123′, 2018, Rights: World 

A woman who lives on the Atlantic coast of Chubut, Argentina, takes a trip to the Patagonia mountain range to find the traces left by her grandfather; former doctor in the Cushamen region. In his tour “Nahue” is confirming why his grandfather led a political project in the 1960s that sought to counteract the huge inequalities in the area. The evidence of a continuity of the “desert campaign” that exterminated the original Peoples, will provide a clear historical context to analyze the conflict in Patagonia.
