Johnny (56) and Julia (87) only have each other. Immersed in his own time, Johnny deals with a mental instability that is no obstacle to caring for, combing and singing for Julia, who is suffering from memory loss.
Sigo acá [I'm still here] explores the unconditional relationship of a mother and son that transcends time and its effects.
