Synopsis: Chaurahen (Crossroads)
almost like snippets of collected photographs of everyday
life. It brings together similar disconnected people in
search or something to overcome the mundane of reality.
A mixture between games of perception and reality, the absurdly
comic and the absolutely accurate, a mystery and a family
drama. The film traces patterns and drops hints through
snippets of everyday for a chosen set of middle class individuals,
only to reveal that their lies far greater drama in the
ordinariness of ordinary stories than in the melodrama of
spectacles. A film very different from anything seen in
modern Indian cinematic narration.

and Leopoldo Torres RÃos.
Cradle in the novel the ENSOÑACIÓN of the BIOGRAPHER,

Clara's Gaze tells the history of Leopoldo, a modest
photographer, who was Clara's pen pal and although never
having met her, he asked her to marry him.
Clara
was a legendary Swedish beauty, but her
eye sight was bad. She could only see through pathetic heavy
glasses, which she did not want to be seen in while with
her husband.
This caused them marriage problems and she was advised by
a fortune teller to stay out of her husband's bed. This
she did although allowing him to take nude pictures of her,
which eventually lead Clara to become a ghost actress of
the dumb cinema.
By chance Leeopold discovered this, but by then she was
comfortable in her new role as an actress, and all that
success brought for her.
The history of the marriage of Leopoldo and Clara narrates
an ambiguous history of love that is born and grows compares
to the history of the Argentine cinema.
It is the more or less legendary history of a family of film
directors, with his secrets of alcove, their moments of History,
tells that Clara was a long time in confessing her myopia to
her husband. It is a history of parents and children confused by the passion of the cinema.
