Synopsis
Pepe, an elderly Spaniard, has improvised his own golf course on the outskirts of Madrid. Daniela, a young filmmaker, gets to know his routine as she films him. Both suffer from hearing loss. On the edge of a space doomed to disappear, the camera translates this unlikely “dialogue of the deaf”. Two very different generations and cultures come together through the medium of film.
