Looking for extras and locations, a filmmaker settles on Chiloé, the second largest island off the coast of Chile. He does auditions, but mainly listens patiently to the stories of young and old people. As an outsider, he cautiously searches for the soul of the community and its underlying tensions.

Absolutely the worst movie.
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
While the casting 'story line' could certainly have benefited well from some kind of climax or conclusion, this documentary by Jose Luis Torres Leiva is a beautiful exploration of the island of Chiloe. Its inhabitants' daily lives, the social divide and love stories, the island's history will keep you engaged throughout the film. My personal favorite was this semi-metafictional flavor added with the film this 'director' says he's about to do and the auditions for this movie (that I still don't know for certain if it's real). There is something about the lead repeating the story that made me wonder whether it would turn out that it was about him. And that added mystery.
