Synopsis:

Mother and daughter decide to cross Chile from south to north looking for a relative they do not know. While the mother wishes to reunite with her sister, the daughter looks for her real father. This argument and its "original way of translating a personal situation into cinematographic terms, alternating with skill, humor and emotion" -according to the jury- made María Paz (31) obtain the maximum prize in these two festivals, together with obtaining recognition in other places.

Awards:
