Some Kind of Sadness

A tapestry of seemingly unconnected vignettes beginning with an extraordinary event at the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin, where the victory of the Peruvian football team was declared void. The film mixes the personal with the political and the historical, going from a portrait of an optimistic taxi driver to that of three waiters of a train to that of an alienated outsider living in the Amazonian forest region.
