SYNOPSIS Perhaps, displaced by the figure of the immigrant or the excluded, workers have been filmed by the art of cinema mainly focusing on their conflicts or as a castaway from progress and globalization. But, apart from their labor demands, who are these workers? What has happened to them? What has become of their imaginary world and their dreams?
Cristian Pauls
Buenos Aires, 1957. He studied film and wrote film theory from 1978 to 1982 for the magazine
Cuadernos de cine. In addition to being a screenwriter and director, he has taught at various Argentine institutions, including the Universidad del Cine (FUC) and the Universidad Nacional de La Plata (UNLP), as well as at international institutions such as the CCC in Mexico, the Universidad de la República (Uruguay), the Escuela de Cine del Uruguay, and the Universidad Veritas in San José, Costa Rica. He programmed the inaugural edition of the Buenos Aires International Documentary Film Festival, as well as the cycles Intersecciones, Imaginerías (cinema for children), and
