The main thread of this road trip is the Ruta 40, the historic route that runs from north to south of Patagonia. In our journey we will face the subject of land speculation, in other words, of how foreign multinationals manage to buy hundreds of hectares for nothing in order to exploit the land’s natural resources – water and minerals. All of this is mainly happening at the expenses of the Mapuche, the indigenous people who always lived in this land and who are now strongly asserting their claim on it. The journey is made up of other important stops that explain how Patagonia is still a land of conquest, where the most precious investment is probably embodied in the water reserves treasured in the world’s most ancient glaciers. Chronicles of a journey, amidst enquiry, folklore and spirituality.
