Two young women travel across Tierra del Fuego in a stolen van. As the journey and their encounters unfold, the film morphs into a lesbian porn road movie. Proof if it were necessary that pleasure is also political.

Two girls cross the Tierra del Fuego in a stolen van. As they travel and meet new people, the van's community grows and the film becomes a lesbian pornographic road movie. Addressing in depth the representations imposed by traditional pornography, Albertina Carri's film shows imperfect yet happy bodies. Women who climax in front of the camera behind which is an all-female technical team. A film about women by women sure to provide food for thought.
