Amid the routine of farm work, Alejandra pursues a foreign worker. Lucas, her brother, pursues her. Jealousy, hidden within the silences of the farm, slowly begins to surface.

Deep in the Argentine outback, a land of makeshift houses and industrial detritus, lives a poor young woman who can heal sick pets and exorcise demons. Or is she actually a victim of her own demons?

A German family unravels as they are forced to abandon their farm in Entre Ríos, Argentina.

A few years ago a man appeared who claimed to speak an apparently lost language: Chaná. Soon dictionaries were published and the language could be completely recovered. This man also located the Chanás in the same place where the Volga Germans live today, in the province of Entre Ríos. Inspired by the book of poems of the same name, Big Shadow is the story of a group of friends who live in German villages while they prepare a film about the new language.

Jesús López, a young racing driver, dies accidentally leaving his town in astonishment. His cousin Abel, a drifting teenager, gradually feels tempted to take his place in life.

Three farmers work on a farm in Entre Ríos, a sparsely populated lowland region of Argentina traversed by rivers. Their crops are affected by ‘black frost’ which threatens to destroy their harvest. One day, a young woman appears at their door; blithely and self-assuredly she begins to influence their familiar routines. The bewildered farmers yield to Alejandra’s interventions: she dons Heribertos’ dead wife’s clothes, accompanies Benigno to a greyhound race and wins young Lucas’ friendship. Shortly afterwards, the frost disappears.

The story reflects the lives of several teenagers from a German colony in the province of Entre Ríos, some of whom want to leave, while others choose to stay in the village. Ferdinand, a young German who is in the colony to study its customs, disappears. This fact will shock both young people and adults, as well as the police who will arrive to investigate.
