Winter 2021, Atacama Desert, Chile. Around one of the largest lithium mines in the world, several protagonists tell of their attachment to this territory. The commitment of an indigenous woman for water rights, the doubts of scientists exploring the desert as an analogue to Mars, the belief of industrialists, the ghosts of colonisation and the stories of new explorers collide.

the leading man is my tpye
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
