THE IMMORTAL

S Y N O P S I S

I am like this lake that – like Nicaragua – is not like a flowing river and is always new, but I keep and accumulate. During a journey from El Immortal, the Rivera family teaches how division, religious manipulation, machismo and poverty is part of the legacy of the war in Nicaragua.
