My mum’s from Patagonia. Here, she talks about a film shot there, about a man and his dog. “Bombón: El Perro”. It’s an amazing film. Worth seeking out.

Susana was an amazing story teller. Sadly, Alzheimer’s has robbed us of her tales. I often bang on about her plight here, so I thought I’d share some of her, in her pomp.
