Overview
A small community of old people are living in a rural town, deep in the countryside in Uruguay, lost in a vast expanse of green grass. They do not have electricity or running water. They watch the time go by slowly and silently, but they do not complain or make excuses as they wait for the new day. That's just what life is like in Quebracho.
