Vidas errantes

Juan Antonio de la Riva
Mexico
Synopsis

Two men, in the manner of wandering knights, travel through the most remote corners, the most remote places in the Sierra de Durango, carrying a projector and rolls of film in their truck to carry through the cinema, a show to fulfill their beautiful job as "dream dealers". More than entertainment, these films become role models, as a lifestyle that works as an element of national cohesion: The valiant but romantic 'Charro', the frivolous and also self-sacrificing party, the love frustrations, everything projected in the semi-darkness of an improvised room, school, factory or outdoors.

Walking these trails, these two men know love, they face danger and tragedy, but they also know a supreme value in life: friendship and solidarity in the face of misfortune.
