Synopsis

In a remote and tiny community limited by the unforgiving environment of the Altiplano, in the North of Argentina, a married couple of teachers created their own educational system. Between the novels of Jules Verne and spicy stews, the 45 children study Newton’s third law by building jet propulsion rockets with plastic bottles and cardboard pieces. Focusing on the impact of this educational project on the community, Los Sentidos reveals the ties between teachers and children and their families, and also uncovers the ambitions, desires, and the obstacles of a community facing fundamental challenges in the near future.
