Gaucho Gaucho

The duo behind The Truffle Hunters are back with a timeless and visually stunning tribute to the gauchos—cowboys and cowgirls who keep old traditions alive. Dressed in beautiful uniforms, with an almost spiritual connection to their horses and the land they ride on, the gauchos drink mate, race, gallop, and lasso as their ancestors have always done. Out of time, but certainly not out of place, they keep the traditions of the past alive among cacti and dusty cornfields. In crystal-clear and stunningly beautiful black-and-white images that capture every grain of desert dust, Gaucho Gaucho is not only one of the most beautiful films of the past year but also a true Argentine Western with understated humour and a melancholic touch of Old World charm in a time of slow but certain change.
