El silencio del rio

Synopsis Juan, a 9 year old child, lives with his father in a floating house on the other side of the Amazon River. The film constructs a marvellous cosmogony in which men dialogue with nature, days with nights, dreams with reality, children with fathers. It is also an initiatory tale in which the passage to adulthood is made, literally, "by living one's dreams". To such an extent that one does not know whether it is the father or the son who passes on his world to the other.
