The Documentary Gaze: Jorge Leandro Colas The Visit

Wednesday, April 14, 2021 5:30 PM - 6:30 PM

Synopsis
Five hundred women and a handful of men get to the small town of Sierra Chica to visit the prisoners at its penitentiary every weekend. This prison complex has three units, it houses about 4000 inmates, and it's surrounded by inns, bars and boardinghouses that work exclusively with the female visitors whose stay there is both massive and fleeting. Bibi's boardinghouse and El Gallego's bar are the two places where the visitors' life stories come together, as stories marked by pain, love and desire
