Una corriente salvaje

Nuria Ibáñez Castañeda's third feature film follows in the wake of her two previous works - The tight rope (2009) and The empty room (2013) - in which her approach to fascinating and distant characters takes us into their lives no less interesting and overwhelmingly unknown. In this new documentary, the lives of two Mexican fishermen, Omar and Chilo, are portrayed, neighbors in a distant and apparently unpopulated place on the Pacific coast: we will see their daily life described in their fishing chores, but we also get closer to their way of understand that loneliness, that their coexistence compensates in a very unique friendship.
