For Daniel Burmeister cinema is more than a profession, it is his life. He drives from town to town across Argentina, proposing to the authorities of each municipality that he make a fiction feature there in thirty days in exchange for food and lodging. The actors are the locals. In each town he adapts his scripts and raises extra money by selling tickets and DVDs. In El ambulante the camera follows the tireless, optimistic Burmeister as he arrives in the town of Benjamín Gould. Will he manage once again to make his film and premiere it?
