A city in the north of Chile succumbs to the advancing desert: it seems strangely desolate, almost as if all the inhabitants had suddenly gone away in the middle of an ordinary day. The short film is part of a series of seven brief documentaries commissioned by the Consejo Nacional de la Cultura y las Artes de Chile (CNCA) for the Biennale of Architecture in Venice.
