    • Synopsis
    • On February 4, 1974, the Hotel Sol was inaugurated in San Martín de los Andes; It was born as another member of a hotel chain in the country, becoming one of the coveted points of the Argentine jet set. That building is the beginning of a story that shaped the main activity of that town; the ski. Today it lies forgotten in plain sight at the top of the mountain.
      From the room of a small studio apartment, a woman observes him and asks herself questions about that inevitable construction in front of her window. The woman and the hotel exchange their voices in sensations and reflections.
      In Don't leave me in silence, archive images, a record of the current ruin and several voices from the south reconstruct the history of the first 5-star hotel in San Martín de los Andes, and its link with the local population.
