Perros sin cola

Life in the slums of the port city of Antofagasta is a daily struggle, both at home and in the streets. Rosario, a teenager, doesn't get along with her mother, who keeps pandering to her good-for-nothing boyfriend. After attacking a classmate, Rosario is expelled from school. Breakdance is an outlet for her pent-up anger. She finds peace and support with her best friend Jonathan, a street hawker who sells knick-knacks to raise money for his sister's wedding.

Combining a calm pace with an energetic visual style and documentary intermezzos, Perros sin cola connects the experiences of the characters to the reality of this place. This slice-of-life film shows how, in their own way, they all struggle to stay afloat. On the long-awaited wedding night, everyone's repressed feelings eventually spill out.
