Into Thin Air
Director: Cristina Motta
HD / Argentina / 15 minutes / 2018
Maria disappeared in a road of the Northwest of Argentina in 2011, Laura, four months pregnant, was kidnaped in the midst of a fierce dictatorship in 1976, and Ema was appropriated by Indians in 1875 in the middle of a ferocious fight for territory. They all share a common destiny: they all vanished into air.
In a recurrence close to a habit, every one of the last three centuries expresses a singular path to women’s existence.
