When I moved to Buenos Aires, I met this girl who was singing a song that I couldn’t forget. So I went to her place to hear again and again this beautiful Uruguayan song on her roof. Later I made the animation based on the lyrics and my thoughts. This is a personal short film inspired by friendship.
