This short film is about a man who is trying to buy a new "life". Since "life", apparently, is too cheap, the sales agent tries to sell him various other items instead, like a "conscience" and a "suicide".
This film is interesting in that it tries to note the supposed value of morals, ideals, and other intangibles. Food for thought, and an interesting social commentary.

En Espera (On Hold)
This short film is about a rural girl who is traveling to the city. Set amidst a number of scenic backdrops and everyday sights, this movie will show not just the beautiful sights of Ecuador, but also the startling reality of life for some children there.

Alma
This short film is about Alma, a woman caught in the tangle of human trafficking. She begins the day simply, with not many expectations, but ends up in a terrible situation that is not of her own choosing.
This is gritty and sad. It also makes you reflect on the horrible, illegal industry where a lot of people get rich from, on the pain of others.

La Bolsa O La Vida
This rather educational short film gives a whirlwind of information on the "hunger bubble". The info flies by at incredible pace, but what an interesting notion regarding food demand and supply.
However, it's only 97% true, so I guess we shouldn't worry too much.

Como Está La Cosa (Things Are Tough These Days)
This seems like a hyperbole about how tough it is to find a job. It's funny, but unfunny.
