Documentary, Drama

'Chasing after the wind' is a portrait of Gustavo, a marginal character whose intimacy opens a window to the social and cultural fabric of a neighborhood at the peak of change. Gustavo is a wild man living at a nostalgic place yearning for the lost essence of its past. Every night, Gethsemane becomes Gustavo's scene, while he slips into the dark corners of the neighborhood. This film is a contemplation of a shared impermanence, where Gethsemane's debris bears witness of the end of a community, but also of a human being.
