I Shall Die Singing

A COPRODUCTION BETWEEN TRINO FILMS & FARO CINE

Sinopsis

In Chile’s arid countryside, two old poets—a devout shepherd and a wily laborer—raise coplas to the heavens. In their voices—at times solemn, at times festive—an oral wisdom, human and divine, endures, transfiguring the sorrows and joys of a peasantry burdened by poverty.
