Alicia Scherson

Chile

2008

Carla hesitates. She is 37, married, possibly pregnant and supposed to be happy while she is travelling towards summer vacation along with her husband and a jet ski hooked to the back of the car. But maybe she doesn't want to be there. Maybe she prefers to be hitchhiking with a random Norwegian backpacker heading to a beautiful national park where she could walk among big trees and talk about birds and old pop songs with the park ranger. Yes, maybe that would be better. A strong reflection on being on earth and taking a break in order to breathe better.
