Port Desire - Not all battles end when the guns go silent

Forty years after the Malvinas War, Wytrikusz sets sail—not with a passport, but with a mission. As he rebuilds a humble boat to plant Argentina’s flag once more, memories resurface and family ties are tested.

What begins as a solitary act of patriotism becomes a profound reflection on trauma, legacy, and the unseen scars that war leaves behind.
