In Chile’s Tierra del Fuego, “Toto” has spent 40 years hand-mining for gold in brutal conditions; after a stroke and with no social security, he still can’t stop. His son Jorge sets out to design and build a homemade gold-harvesting machine to spare his father’s labor, turning their struggle into an intimate father-son portrait about work, dignity, and hope.
