    Abstract

    I am sitting in the darkness, surrounded by Australians waiting for the film to begin. I am anxious wondering how this film will represent my country. I feel scrutinised as if they knew I am Mexican and they will judge me through the gaze of the film. At the same time I am excited. I want to see my city again and walk in it through its images and sounds, and remember my past in it. I know this will make me feel close to the ones who stayed there.
