The Peddler
This sweet little documentary tells the story of Daniel Burmeister who is a filmmaker like no other. Travelling from village to village around Argentina, he approaches the local authorities asking for their permission to shoot his latest film there. All he asks is for food and a place to stay for the month it takes him to shoot, edit and premiere his work. What makes this even more special and desirable for the authorities is that he involves the whole village in the production, finding parts for as many people as possible and enlisting the help of any interested parties in the technical side of things. His offer accepted in one small rural village, we watch as he creates his 58th masterpiece with an old VHS camcorder and the support of the enthusiastic locals.
