Giorgio, an inventor of surreal floating artifacts that made news in the 80's, embarked on a new adventure: a three-month motorcycle trip from Colombia to the extreme southern part of Argentina known as the "end of the world". After 15 years apart from her father, Silvia decides to go with him with the intention of rebuilding her unusual family story, which only remains in her childhood memories. Also with the intention to confront him for his absence and the fact he didn't turn up to her mother's funeral. My Way or the Highway, proposes a movement back and forth through time by means of a collage of memories from family adventures, which contrast with a silent present between Silvia and her father. This travel diary reveals the difficulty of relating to our parents in adulthood, but also the desire to revive the closeness that existed in childhood.
