In the heart of a Lima in transformation towards a new normal, a group of young filmmakers delves into the back rooms of three shopkeepers at the emblematic intersection of Quilca and Camaná. The nostalgia, yearnings and challenges of everyday life weave a story about the random passing of time and the aspirations shared by characters and filmmakers in the search for an uncertain future.

Machine Man is a documentary that explores memory through the encounter of two voices: that of the group Cabezas de Cera, which engages in a dialogue with the past through the musical accompaniment of the silent film “México Industrial,” and the voice of Don Rutilio, who, through oral accounts, constructs a memory of his life when he worked as a laborer at the Metepec Cotton Spinning, Weaving, and Finishing Factory, a film portrayed decades earlier by the group that currently provided the music.
