Synopsis
Based on remains of argentine films that were never completed, The Endless Film is a parallel history of cinema. A journey in negative throughout creation and oblivion. A history about what was not. A film created on fragments from others films that never existed. As a cinematic Frankenstein, coming back to life in front of our eyes.
