    La espera

    Directed by Danilo Do Carmo, Jakob Krese
    Germany/Brazil | 14 minutes | North American Premiere |

A remote piece of no-man´s land exists in a dusty, barren area between a railway line and a highway. Hushed and anxious, a caravan of people, each with their own quiet story, sit among the flaring campfires awaiting an uncertain destiny as they plan to cross the U.S. border.

In competition for Best Documentary Short.
