Trenque Lauquen is a 2022 mystery-drama film directed by Laura Citarella, and starring Laura Paredes, who co-wrote the screenplay with Citarella.
While looking for her, they wonder why did she leave, and although each man has their own suspicions about the real reason, they keep their thoughts hidden from each other, all the while never really becoming rivals.
The sudden escape becomes the hidden core of a series of vignettes that the film delicately weaves: the secret of another woman's heart, also lost, many years ago; the secret of the life of a town in the countryside, governed by a supernatural incident that no one seems to perceive; the secret of their region's plains, which never cease to spread and devour everything, like the mysterious shadows that invade the world after the hour of twilight.
