Synopsis

Another Sun is a film set out to invent, while investigating, the legend of Alberto, a Chilean international thief, made prisoner in Europe and murdered in Chile at the age of 29. To do so the film crosses two territories, linked by a colonial history: the Atacama Desert in Chile and southern Spain.
