Filmed during a 12-day workshop in the Amazon rainforest of Peru under the mentorship of Apichatpong Weerasethakul, La presencia de lo ausente is intended to be a farewell letter, but on its journey it becomes an exercise in memory, time, trauma and the lack. The encounter with humidity, mosquitoes, the sound of a walkie-talkie and two surveyors triggers the memory and begins the contemplation.

The Amazon rain forest, 1979. The crew of Fitzcarraldo (1982), a film directed by German director Werner Herzog, soon finds itself with problems related to casting, tribal struggles and accidents, among many other setbacks; but nothing compared to dragging a huge steamboat up a mountain, while Herzog embraces the path of a certain madness to make his vision come true.

A group of teens discover secret plans of a time machine, and construct one. However, things start to get out of control.
