Synopsis
Three Polaroids are the only testimony of a children’s birthday party in Buenos Aires in the early 1980s. The evocation of one of the girls in the photo serves to reconstruct a blurred childhood and to explore the family relationships. The encounter between image and memory reveals the past and anticipates the future.
