Description

Toiling under the hot sun, Francisco and Gonzalo gather the raw materials to make sun-dried bricks. When the demand for their handmade product dries up, their business will cease to exist. This meditative and reflective doc is a powerful study of hard work and the realities of rapidly changing economics. Eileen Arandiga
