El movimiento

During the first half of the 19th century, in a vast and desolated land fallen into anarchy, several armed groups drift along the infinite Pampas demanding support and food from the peasants. Even if they are bitter rivals, they all claim to pledge allegiance to the “movimiento”. Among these gangs is one led by Señor, an educated man who, with two of his followers, intends to found a peaceful new order. But while his enchanting words and manners seem appealing, his methods reveal an unstoppable thirst for power.
The Movement

- 1879. One thousand five hundred men walk in the desert under the orders of General Roca. They are going to build the space of the Argentine nation. They move forward undoubtedly to the big South, there where there is nothing, by carrying with them the civilization. A century later, in 1980, in the city now named General Roca, the military junta in power organizes a national congress of history to celebrate the centenarian of the conquest of this desert.

El Juego

Jorge Booth, Marcelo Pompei
A group of armed men are wandering in the jungle, tracking themselves one another. Some move in pairs, some alone, some wear military uniforms and some don't. Like in any sort of game, rivalries and internal conflicts will not take long to emerge, drawing a line between the strong and the weak.

Marcelo, 50 years old, has dedicated his life to teaching philosophy at the Public University and suddenly his mentor and boss, Professor Caselli, dies. Disoriented in this new landscape, Marcelo assumes that he will inherit the position left vacant by his mentor. What he doesn't expect is that Rafael Sujarchuk, a charismatic and pedantic philosopher trained in the best European universities, also covets the position. Between his multiple jobs as a philosophy professor in the local slums, at the university and privately with an 80-year-old millionaire, he must also prepare to run for office against this strong opponent who seems to have everyone on his side. Marcelo's clumsy efforts don't seem to be enough to get the job, but is that really what he wants?
