Overview

The "caminante" refers to a hobo who roams the countryside, a nomenclature preferred by Carlos, who once traveled all over Uruguay before becoming a homeless vagabond, or "bichiome", in the city of Montevideo. The film presents a portrait of society through the life of one marginalized individual.
