[Americana FF'22] A lucid reflection on the paradox of the "Chinese dream", not so much as a particular vision of China, but as a probable deviation from Western society. The film reveals and feeds on this paradox, which is reflected in the representation of a non-capitalist society that has adapted to the precepts of capitalism. Another paradox, ascend to see the void, to find that "everywhere is already razed".

It's about everything and nothing. Maybe for the director the movie say a lot, but it's so personal that the meaning Just don't get the audience. I really like the images, but they lost the meaning when you see with the eyes of a latin American.
