From the Waters
2010, Spanish. Directed by Pablo Martínez Pessi.
Villa Santo Domingo de Soriano was founded in 1624 by the first Europeans in the Banda Oriental (which is now Uruguay). This documentary re-discovers the settlement with a visit to its inhabitants and its houses, on the banks of the silent Rio Negro. The reality of this place is a reflection of a country's identity, as it tries to recover what it once was without giving up the will to prosper.
