"Owner's Portrait" is a documentary fable, with an atmosphere of science fiction: on a remote island, where there are no more humans or money left, lives a community of cats that transmits a libertarian message. The antennas propagate it throughout the planet and are the dogs the first to hear it. Meanwhile, workers lose their lives working in the factory. The animals escape from their homes and the owners go looking for them. In the streets they hear the voices of past revolutions and wonder if a new world can grow at this moment.

El estado de las cosas

Tatiana Mazú, Joaquín Maito

There is a house being emptied. There is an auction in the neighborhood of Flores. Clients fill the place, eager to buy all kinds of objects. There is almost no filter when fighting to get the best price that belongs to the dead, the exiles, the fugitives and the soulless. A reseller who is too preoccupied with the staging, a collector with a past as a fishing worker, and the owner of an antique shop that admits to selling the affections of people, hints at the state of things.
