In
a colonisation village built under Francoism, the neighbours settle on an empty
plot once occupied by the open-air cinema. The camera and microphone record the settlement process: the movement,
the gestures, the conversations and glances, the drawings and the bells
tolling; a biker with flowers and two goldfinches; children engrossed by a
screen. Some
neighbours take in the fresh air and chat. The village is reinterpreted by
local mythology: the unique architecture and the eucalyptus forest that
surrounds it acquire new meanings.
