Sinopsis / Synopsis:
The quasi-fascist architecture of Francisco Salamone's slaughterhouses in the Argentine pampas, the
utopian buildings by Freddy Mamani Sylvestre in El Alto, Bolivia, and the restorative "City Palace" in
Berlin are the cornerstones of an analytical documentary film that explores the dual character of
architectural modernism in the field of tension between avant-garde and political propaganda.
