Synopsis
Marcela Alanís, anthropologist from Patagonia, and Lucas Ruiz, glaciologist, CONICET Associate Researcher, tour the Argentine glaciers of the Southern Andes Mountains, unraveling their secrets, history, legends, cultural impact, and biological importance.
The tour is completed with a visit to the Glaciarum museum where its director Luciano Bernacchi gives an account of the work carried out in research and dissemination in these years added to the contributions in the testimonies of historians, guides, park rangers, who confront and complement their visions of the past, present and future of glaciers.
Art is combined in this work with the presence of the Argentine actress and singer Elena Roger who tours the Perito Moreno Glacier and sings, a capella, about the imposing setting of its immensity. The plastic artist Eleonora González Videla also brings us closer to her exclusive painting technique, applied with her knuckles, with the sediment left by the retreating glaciers.
A story that flows, like the movement of the glacier, where everything accumulates, merges and moves forward en masse.
