Daniel Hendler
Un cabo suelto
Santiago, a corporal in the Argentine police force, crosses the border into Uruguay fleeing other police officers who are looking for him. Using his uniform, he inspects regional food stalls, trying dairy products and sausages to survive, while trying to go unnoticed among the locals. Without money or lodging but with empathy and cunning, he begins to plot a new life, receiving the help of local characters he crosses along the way and even meets who he believes may be the love of his life.
