Here we stayed (for now)
In Raul TRAFFIC LIGHT COMPANY Trellez, god of dirt, unique, irreparable, a recycler alienated by stubbornness, absolute freedom and candy, is committed to achieve with their limited knowledge and improvised devices, the duration of light red traffic can be controlled by him, the time you want to be able to ride longer acts from jugglers, handicapped and street vendors and other inhabitants of an intersection. Amid the madness and fantasy, circus halo that covers their lives is becoming a symphony to despair, to despair and anarchy.
Ruben Mendoza (Writer and Director) and Juan Carlos Gil (Director of Photography)
