La idea de un lago

Milagros Mumenthaler's second feature film is a poetic reconstruction of the summers of Inés, a photographer determined to finish her new book before her son is born. Those memories take us to the family home in southern Argentina. From that period of time, she only keeps a single photo with his father months before he disappeared as a victim of the military dictatorship. Based on the book "Pozo de Aire" by Guadalope Gaona, this film deals with this political issue not from the historical facts but from a place of intimacy. She invites us to observe and, like the girl Inés, fill in the gaps in memory through play.
