Ciudad Jardín

Storyline

As he is about to leave Viña del Mar, his hometown, Javier begins filming gardens without quite knowing what he is looking for. For eight years, each time he returns, he explores trees, plants, and landscapes, composing a visual essay in which avocado trees, palm trees, and roses coexist with fairy tales, colonial ghosts, and the class conflicts that run through the heart of his own family.
