A Ravaging Wind
Buy ticketsTraveling preacher and his dutiful daughter clash with a car mechanic and his son in a quietly powerful road movie set in the sun-drenched Argentine countryside.
Eighteen-year-old Leni travels the roads with her self-righteous and demanding preacher father. When their car breaks down, they spend the night at the workshop of El Gringo and his son. Pastor Pearson becomes obsessed with 'freeing' the peculiar Tapioca from his limited existence, through salvation and a new life – regardless of what his father Gringo thinks. For Leni, the encounter becomes an eye-opener on the inevitable path to her own liberation and a catalyst for all the suppressed emotions she carries. Paula Hernández (Sleepwalkers, GFF 2019) returns with a powerful road movie, where the journey takes place more on the inside than the outside, and where young talents and weathered veterans deliver acting of the highest caliber.
* Youth Jury Dragon Award nominee.
