The Silence

Tomás is a 17-year-old teenager who lives in Santa Fe with his mother and his stepfather. Between skipping school and playing PC-game marathons, he finds out his girlfriend is pregnant. With his tail between his legs, he runs away to a town called Los Espejos (The Mirrors) in search of a man he's been wanting to meet for some time: his father. Haunted by a cloud of doubt, Tomás will reach out to the naval carpenter to ask him for a job and to understand why the man was never interested in him. (Mar del Plata International Film Festival)
