布宜诺斯艾利斯

一个在阿根廷居住的西班牙加利西亚移民家庭的悲伤历史，穿插了老照片、黑白文献影像和大量布市美丽的街景镜头，然而在繁华的背后却是几代欧洲移民与亲人长久分离的孤独，痛苦和渴望相聚的情感，以及他们在阿根廷的艰辛生活。50年后，当其中的一些孙辈后代和孤儿们最终扣开了欧洲大门得以团圆时，很多当年的父辈们却已经不在了。这是一部感人的纪录片。Through family photographs, archive footage and, mainly, empty shots of the streets of Buenos Aires, the films recovers fragments from the past of a family. Emigration, separation, longing, loneliness and pain are the ingredients of a raw film where compassion and sentimentalism are absent. A woman meets her brother after 50 years of absence. In those days, Galician people emigrated to Argentina to make money. Five decades later, the grandchildren, orphaned and poor, knock on Europe's door. The long, empty shots, the formal radicalism of the film, are the necessary tools to picture this painful absence.
