After abandoning his family 17 years ago, an elderly farmer, Alfonso, returns home to care for his ailing son. He discovers the landscape once familiar to him has been ravaged by toxic smoke and resembles a wasteland, as the vast sugar cane fields surrounding his house are burned during harvest. While reconciling his past, Alfonso must save his family from this life-threatening situation.
"The great winner of the 2015 Cannes Film Festival Camera D'Or Award is this moving story of a rancher's return to his sugar cane estate in order to care for his sick son and try to save his family. This film portrays drama through silence, lack of dialogue, and absence of what should be said. For those looking for something deep, full of emotion, but without resorting to the dramatic."
