SYNOPSIS

A veteran of Malvinas’ War repair a boat to return to the islands without a passport in order to plant Argentina’s flag forty years after. During the preparations for the sailing, family bonds emerge as well as memories from the past that allow a question to raise: How long does a war remains? How does this affect those around you?

 

Premiere in Spain. With the presence of the director.

Why must you see it?

Creating a fissure between what is said and what is not said, what is shown and what is not, Puerto deseado delves into the life of a Malvinas War veteran who prepares a sea voyage to the islands with the sole purpose of planting an Argentine flag. In dribs and drabs and with attention to every gesture, Juan Manuel Bugarín configures a scenario, an atmosphere and a three-dimensional dimension to understand the symbolic quest of the protagonist. The tension increases while waiting for a trip that may not happen, but that time is enough to create a moving portrait of an existence marked by the absurdity of war.
